Victorian Arena; the Performers
« on: Monday 05 November 07 15:02 GMT (UK) »
Does anyone have a copy of 'Victorian Arena; the Performers' by John Turner, and willing to do look-ups?

I am trying to find references to my ancestors Edward and Lucy Green, acrobats and  performers in London 1848-1871. Because they worked with horses at some point, I am also interested in references to Astley's Royal Amphitheatre.

Found this source reference at:
