Hi there Robert, have had a bit of a read of your book, loved it. The title hits the nail on the head with circus. Just had a friend do a book on our elephants, back to my grandfathers day up till now, can get you a copy if you like. Mind you it's been awhile since a real circus been to Freo, maybe they have forgotten what animals are. You will see some cool things from Buckles on this blog I just don't get to it enough.
