Book Overview
Barnum's Parnassus is a book written by William Allen Butler and published in 1850. The book is a collection of confidential disclosures made by the prize committee on the Jenny Lind Song, a competition organized by P.T. Barnum to find the best song for the famous Swedish opera singer Jenny Lind. The book provides a behind-the-scenes look at the competition and the various submissions that were made. It also includes anecdotes and stories about Barnum, Lind, and other notable figures of the time. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of entertainment in the mid-19th century and provides a unique perspective on the early days of show business.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
