CIRCUS GIRL NELL GIFFORD
IN PICTURE OF THE YEAR!

If there were an award for the best circus photograph of the year it would definitely go to the shot of Nell Gifford sitting side-saddle on a rearing horse in the May 21 edition of the Daily Telegraph. Circus has never looked more cool!
Take a look at this fantastic shot and Patricia Carswell’s excellent feature on Gifford’s Circus production of War & Peace at the Hay Literary Festival at this link: "http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/hay-festival/8523546/Giffords-Circus-Smart-way-to-give-us-a-ring.html".
My thanks, too, to Patricia for quoting me and mentioning Circus Mania! within the piece.
If the magic of Gifford’s Circus fires your imagination, check out Circus Mania! to discover the reality of life, death and danger that faces those who run away with the circus. Buy it on Amazon or direct from Peter Owen Publishers at the special price of £10 postage-free (a saving of £5 off the recommended retail price).
