P.T. Barnum:
An Account of humbugs, delusions, impositions, quackeries, deceits and
deceivers generally, in all ages, written by the famous expert in the
field - P.T. Barnum.
Phineas Taylor Barnum (July 5, 1810 – April 7, 1891) was an American
showman remembered for hoaxes and for founding the circus that became
the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. Barnum never flinched
from his stated goal "to put money in his own coffers." He was a
businessman, his profession was entertainment, and he was perhaps the
first "show business" millionaire. He never said "There's a sucker born
every minute" but his rebuttal to critics was often "I am a showman by
profession...and all the gilding shall make nothing else of me."
