Seller's Description:
Fine in fine jacket. Fine in fine dust jacket. First editon, first printing. Hardcover. 244 pp. Told in narrative form, the unorthodox, utterly compelling coming-of-age memoir of a shy middle class kid turned first-class huckster. It's a fascinating insider's view of the carnival underworld---the cons, the double dealing, the quick banter and the easy money. In 1963, at age 15, Pete Fenton, a geeky math whiz schoolboy with a dissatisfied mother and alcoholic father, meets Jackie Barron, the progeny of a pair of professional grifters running a third-rate traveling carnival. Sharing Pete's way with numbers, they start a rigged casino in Jackie's basement and take their classmates for thousands. Within two years Pete is working joints for the Barron's Party Time Shows and soon is holding his own with veteran con men like The Ghost, Horserace Harry, and Talking Tony.
