Book Description
Excerpt from The Genial Showman: Reminiscences of the Life of Artemus Ward, and Pictures of a Showman's Career in the Western World Somewhere in the Western States of the American Union a newspaper editor was challenged to define explicitly the politics of his journal. He replied, - "Up and down the Democratic plank our principles are straight as a ramrod, but we've some ideas which creep out underneath at the sides. They creep and creep till they get their grip of the whole creation." The divergent tendencies of that Western editor were, I am afraid, like to those which have influenced me in writing this book. My intention was to write the story of one who was the most genial of showmen. Yielding to the impulse of the moment, I have written of many other people and of many other things. "Write all that you happen to know of the life of Artemus Ward," advised a friend. I promised to do so. "Relate all your adventures among the showmen of America," said another friend. "America has never been pictured from a showman's point of view in any book of Trans-Atlantic travel. You have seen the greater part of the North American continent, and must surely have some quaint stories to tell and some odd incidents to describe." I replied - "Yes."
