Title:
The Showman and the Slave: Race, Death, and Memory in Barnum's America
Author:
Reiss, Benjamin
Description:
Reiss uses P. T. Barnum's Joice Heth hoax to examine the race relations in the antebellum North. Barnum's first exhibit as a showman, Heth was an enslaved woman said to be the 161-year-old former nurse of the infant George Washington. The newly emerging commercial press turned her act into one of the first media spectacles in American history.
