DREW FRIEDMAN SIDESHOW FREAKS HC

(W/A) Drew Friedman
Before the politically correct impulses of the 1970s squelched the grand American tradition of the sideshow, people born with abnormalities and others who created theirs, exhibited themselves to the shock and thrill of millions in sideshows nationwide. As a youngster, Drew Friedman often visited Coney Island with his family, and he became fascinated with people who are different. Drew Friedman's Sideshow Freaks presents fifty of his favorite historic human oddities, famous and obscure, in mesmerizing full-color portraits.
