NetJuggler's opinion on the book Here's to You, The Jugglers:

This book is a major addition to any library dedicated to the history of the circus and juggling. Paul Adrian doesn't simply list names; he documents the origins, techniques, and artists with an encyclopedic approach rare for the time. The descriptions of acts by European jugglers from the mid-20th century are invaluable and often based on firsthand accounts.

The addition of archival photographs in this 2018 edition further enhances the book's documentary value. It is not a technical manual for learning to juggle, but an essential historical reference for enthusiasts, collectors, and those interested in the history and culture of the circus.

For what type of practice?

• Passionate about the history of juggling and the circus.
• Collectors of specialist and encyclopedic works.
• Artists wishing to deepen their circus culture and understand the roots of their discipline.

Please note : This book is in English. It is not a technical training manual but a history and encyclopedia of juggling.
