Something To Roar About

Dick Monday to tell all

"The New American Circus is by far the best book on Circus I have read. As soon as I

found out about Spectacle I had to have it. Thank you for writing Both the book and magazine."

-- Chuck Johnson, Cirq Us (Maple Valley, WA)


"Albrecht's book is of seminal importance in providing context and analysis of the

new American circus."   -- Choice


"Passionate, intelligent, well-researched."   -- Booklist


"Simultaneously fascinating and perceptive, readable, and scholarly."   -- Circus Report


"A splendid study of the new trend in circus presentation. It will give all readers an

understanding of just what is happening in progressive circus circles and why. I wholeheartedly recommend The New American Circus."   -- World's Fair (Great Britain)


"A premiere reference."   -- Le Cirque dans L Univers (France)


"A fascinating study of an exciting period of change and development in the American circus. Thoroughly recommended."    -- King Pole (Great Britain)
