The Strange Case of Dr. Couney: How a Mysterious European Showman Saved Thousands of American Babies, by Dawn Raffel

3.0

Fun quick read about a man who saved thousands of babies in incubators...which he was able to do because they were a sideshow display at World's Fairs and Coney Island. It was the early to mid-century, and eugenics was a thing; why would anyone want to save premature or "weakling"babies? But this man did. Told in a conversational, showman type style.
