Book Reviews of Life of P.T. Barnum (Classic Reprint)

Book Review: pt barnun
Summary: 2 Stars

I think the story is interesting and a good read but the print is so hard to read . It seems like it was printed on a machine that was out of ink so it is unpleasant and uncomfortable to read so I am losing interest. If there is a problem there maybe you could look into it. I would love to have the book with a nicer print.
