At its peak, 30,000 locals would travel to Huntsville on a Sunday afternoon to see the stars (Johnny Cash, John Wayne, Steve McQueen) and watch the death-defying acts by those who had (almost) nothing to lose." - Houston Press
"Roth's narrative is at its best when he is telling the true tales of prisoners who rode wild animals, jumped out of airplanes, [and] risked their lives for money tied to the horns of bulls." - Texas Books in Review
