Shownotes Transcript

I cheated a little bit since Tom Thumb) was a member of the tour and P.T. Barnum's American Museum )but was not apart of an actual circus. Please forgive I could not resist doing an episode on Charles Stratton (General Tom Thumb). If you happen to have seen The Greatest Showman) (As I have a dozen times) you might remember him. While I LOVE the movie the true story of General Tom Thumb is even more fantastical. Please tune in and hear about Tom's audience with the Queen) and his play battle with her spaniel.)
