Examines the rise of early American popular culture through the lives and work of itinerants who circulated in North America from the late seventeenth to the early nineteenth century. Drawing on contemporary diaries, letters, reminiscences, newspaper ads, broadsides, and images, Benes suggests why some elements of Europe's carnival and folklore traditions failed to gain acceptance while others flourished.
