Fenton, Peter. In the summer of 1963, 14-year-old Peter Fenton was a
freckle-faced honor student and a member of Mensa in his small home
town in Michigan; then he met Jackie Barron?the tall blond and cynical
?world?s youngest Elephant trainer?, whose youth was spent learning
scams on the carnie circuit. Fenton?s book EYEING THE FLASH: The
Education of a Carnival Boy is a hilarious look beneath the surface of
an American icon, the traveling carnie; while at the same time being a
touching memoir of a young man finding a way to escape a humdrum life.
