"This notable addition to the history of circus in America, with its coverage of every known circus showman in Wisconsin's annals?from the Ringlings, Dan Castello, and the Gollmar Brothers to lesser and virtually forgotten circus pioneers?is informative, authoritative and highly readable. Dahlinger and Thayer have combed the archives, searched the appropriate publications and serials, and brought to their subject their own considerable knowledge and expertise. Copious in its details and rich in its illustrations, Badger State Showmen should find an eager readership among scholars and laymen alike." Don B. Wilmeth, theatre historian, Brown University, author of Variety Entertainment and Outdoor Amusements, and past president of the American Society for Theatre Research "This is a wonderful addition to the body of history writings about Wisconsin which was the birthplace of so many great circuses over the years. I hope that everyone has a chance to read this book . and then head straight to the nearest circus!" George L. Vogt, Director, State Historical Society of Wisconsin "From Mabie to Ringling to Franzen and all the shows in between, this comprehensive overview chronicles all the great and not-so-great circuses that made Wisconsin's circus heritage the richest of any state. This volume, by the country's two leading sawdust scholars, is required reading for anyone interested in the circus." Fred D. Pfening, III, past president, Circus Historical Society.
