Jumbo and His Keeper The Life of Jumbo and Matthew Scott

This is the first book in the "Circus, Carnival & Menagerie: A Series of Classic Works" series. This work was selected by scholars as being culturally important. While being reproduced from the original artifact, has been edited for modern reading. Aside from the editing of the actual text, historically relevant images have also been added to this classic work. The book itself contains a brief autobiography of Matthew Scott, who's resume includes working for the Zoological Society of London and more famously the keeper of the elephant Jumbo, as well as a biography of Jumbo himself. This is a great look into the life of P.T. Barnum's most famous elephant. Circus, Carnival & Menagerie: A Series of Classic Works is a great series that offers high quality versions of past works at a great affordable price.
