Review:
I was hoping for a biography and what I really got was more or a sketch of the life and times. I think that if you took the pages that actually talked about the the Siamese Twins and compared them to the book, the biographical material would be less than half. I learned some things I hadn't known about Herman Melville, Mark Twain, and way too much about Mayberry (from The Andy Griffith Show). I learned more about the twins, but it feels like I should have just read an Encyclopedia Britannica article and then read a little of their financial logs and my time would have been better spent.
