Joe Strong on the Trapeze; Or, The Daring Feats of a Young Circus Performer
Vance Barnum
Joe Strong was a favorite hero and could ride any horse, juggle most anything, and climb buildings, all with a steel reserve. He was the child of unique parents: a mother that rode trick horses and a magician for his father. However, in Horatio Alger fashion, by age five, he was without either parent. So he grew up in a circus and Joe Strong on the Trapeze relates the time in his life when he joins the circus!
