The Big Tent: The Traveling Circus in Georgia, 1820-1930
Gregory J. Renoff
For Greg Renoff, the circus and its social context provide a rich repository of changing attitudes about race, class and religion. He tells a new history of what happened when the circus came to town, from the time it traveled by wagon through its heyday during the railroad era and into its initial decline in the age of the automobile.
