Four Swallows and Two Elephants – Ned Williams

This book presents the biographies of seven people whose lives criss-crossed the Black Country while pursuing their interest in entertainment.

The first thing is to find out who they were – sometimes their name is something of a mystery. Having established their identity, the author tells you the story, illustrated with photographs and some times their own words.

They come from a bygone world of fairground shows, variety theatre, travelling theatres, early presentation of film, and the circus.

180 page softcover book, size 19cm x 25cm, well illustrated, brand new.
