#13 History Hack: Victorian Freak Shows

<p>Alex and Alina are joined by rising history star John Woolf to talk all about his book <em>The Wonders&nbsp;</em>and&nbsp;the Victorian Freak Show. Equally heartbreaking as it is fun, we learn about performers through history, the lives they led, and why even if The Greatest Showman was actually a git, Hugh Jackman is still gorgeous.&nbsp;</p><br><p>Support us:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.patreon.com/historyhack" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.patreon.com/historyhack</a></p><br><p>Tips:&nbsp;<a href="https://ko-fi.com/historyhack" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ko-fi.com/historyhack</a></p><br><p>Buy the books:&nbsp;<a href="https://uk.bookshop.org/shop/historyhack" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://uk.bookshop.org/shop/historyhack</a></p><br><p>Merch:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.historyhackpod.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.historyhackpod.com/</a></p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
