Just received my copy of
Scott Xaviers new book "Memoirs of a Mind Reader" -
Scrapbook of a Sideshow Mentalist on CD
Scott chronicles his
adventures and misadventures spent with the HARMUR
Sideshows association with Circus Sideshows. The CD
is loaded with sideshow photos of performers, freak
animals, bannerlines streaming video, ballys, behind
the scenes images most people would never see.
The text is opinionated
and harsh, with some names changed to protect the
innocent...or guilty. When I advertised for help on
Sideshow World,
John Robinson of
Sideshow World wrote; "This may be your last chance
to be a part of sideshow history".
Xavier is making sure
his short employment with the Circus Sideshows will
not be forgotten with his expose' on the daily
operations and treatment of the personnel and even
the animals on exhibit. No one is spared, not even
this Author, with Xaviers truths to be found inside
this shocking edition.
The book is funny, sad,
hurtful, exhilarating and above all truthful, but
indeed a part of sideshow history.
