J. Simpson. We have also published survivor stories of World War II, memoirs about overcoming adversity, first-hand tales of adventure, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home., Due to horrible physical deformities, he spent much of his life as a fair-ground freak.

Joseph Carey Merrick, born in Leicester on 5th August 1852, is better known as the Elephant Man.
