The Circus Boys Across the Continent; Or, Winning New Laurels on the Tanbark (Dodo Press)
Автор:Edgar B. P. Darlington Год: 2009 Издание:Книга по Требованию Страниц: 184 ISBN: 9781406599732 One of series of children's books published between 1910-1920 about two boys who run away to join the circus. "No call to the heart of the youth of America finds a readier response than the call of the billowing canvas, the big red wagons, the crash of the circus band and the trill of the ringmaster's whistle. It is a call that captures the imagination of old and young alike, and so do the books of this series capture and enthrall the reader, for they were written by one who, besides weilding a master pen, has followed the sawdust trail from coast to coast, who knows the circus people and the sturdy manliness of those who do and dare for the entertainment of millions of circus-goers when the grass is green. Mr. Darlington paints a true picture of circus life."
