The Big, Bold Adventurous Life of Lavinia Warren


















With renewed interest in Barnum after the Greatest Showman it isn't surprising that those who fell into his circle or performers would also be getting a fresh look.  I had heard of "Tom Thumb" and a bit about Lavinia but most of the information in this book was new to me.  The chapters were short and engaging, there was historical context, and the photographs added personality.  Well done.
