An insider's view of the carnival underworld - the cons, the double-dealing, the quick banter, and the easy money. The story of a shy middle-class kid turned first-class huckster, Fenton's coming-of-age memoir is unorthodox and compelling. In this strange world with its topsy-turvy code of ethics, where leaving a mark without a dollar for gas is outlawed while cheating a best friend is par for the course, the tension between teacher and student grows until Pete attempts the ultimate challenge: to out-con his mentor. 244 pgs, hardcover, 2005
