His son, Robert H Gollmar, has written a colourful account of circus life and its problems. The material in the book is based on the fathers vivid recollections, on hitherto unpublished family records, on anecdotes by Ken Maynard, Ernest Landers and other former employees, and on the authors own experiences as a boy on the circus.
