INTERVIEW BEGINS AT: 25:50

To this day ask anyone who the greatest showman the world has ever seen was and chances are they will say P T Barnum. And much like much of what Barnum is famous for, the truth isn't always what it seems. Who was this master showman, businessman, promoter, entertainer, and historical legend? We at Transatlantic History Ramblings bring you the answers thanks to the amazing Kathleen Maher, executive director of the Barnum Museum in Bridgeport CT. And she's a fellow ginger to boot!!!
