Morton.Professionally rebacked including original cloth spine with title embossed in gilt and illustration of acrobat embossed in gilt on front board. Bookplate, "Arthur Derry. Nottingham 1865" on front paste-down. Text block is very clean and tight.

And at the same time it penetrates into the stables to explain the secrets of the trainer, the tamer, and the ringmaster; into the booths to ask the clown for the stories of his adventures." With 233 line illustrations, some full page. (Toole-Stott 445; Findlay 394; English Circus Books 49). …
