| Summary | "The Circus Boys on the Mississippi; Or, Afloat with the Big Show on the Big River" by Edgar B. P. Darlington is a novel likely written in the early 20th century, as it reflects a more adventurous and romantic view of life associated with circus performances in that era. The story focuses on the experiences of Circus Boys Phil Forrest and Teddy Tucker, who are now seasoned performers ready to embark on an exciting new season filled with challenges and encounters within the whimsical world of the circus. The opening of the novel sets the stage for the boys' adventures as they prepare for their latest season under the Great Sparling Combined Shows. It introduces characters like Diaz, the new Spanish clown, who has a conflict with Teddy, hinting at humorous yet tense moments to come. As Teddy attempts to navigate his relationships amidst a backdrop of circus antics, he inadvertently finds himself in trouble, leading to an explosive incident involving lightning and a falling tent. The boys' camaraderie and the unfolding circus chaos serve as a light-hearted reflection on childhood bravery and friendship, capturing the essence of their adventures on the Mississippi River.
