Eternal troubadour

While often characterized as an oddball curiosity, Tiny Tim was a master interpreter and student of early American popular song, and his story is one of Shakespearean tragedy framed around a bizarre yet loveable public persona. Drawing on more than one hundred interviews with family, friends, and associates, plus access to Tiny's never-before-seen diaries, and years of original research, author Justin Martell brings that story to life.
