A short history of two Irish entertainers in Victorian times, who made Glasgow their home - one an itinerant performer who made his living by juggling and conjuring whom the Glasgow people took to their hearts; the other had an accomplished dexterity with wire who made and sold chains and puzzles as a living but through drink the Glasgow people lost any respect they had for him.

This numbered, limited edition book is the first in a series of books by Stuart McMillan, which looks at Scottish entertainment of the Victorian era.
