Title: A capital read!!
Review: (Published originally as _STEP RIGHT UP!_)Since my childhood, when Mother read passages to us, this book has captivated me. Its images of the real people of the carnival life, just trying to get along, trying to make a living, with many of the same motivations as you and me, are painted in their true colors. The embarrassment of the author, a genuine fire-eater, burping a tongue of flame at the pharmacy clerk selling him a bottle of olive oil; the cowboy walking out to check on the 'stock' (the family car); the "Impossible Possible," never far from the line between moral and immoral, legal and illegal, working on both sides. What a story of Depression people in a unique business!
