To The Hilt Deep Dive Podcast Ep 1.19 Sir Francis Doran: A Sword Swallower’s History of Sword Swallowing
In this episode, we take a deep dive to explore the life of legendary sword swallower Francis Doran, who worked with circuses and sideshows first as a half-and-half, and later as a sword swallower with Bailey Brothers Circus, Dailey Brothers Circus, Ward Hall’s World of Wonders Sideshow, and ultimately with Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus, Hoxie Bros Circus, and many other circuses and sideshow between 1941 and 1979.
Francis Doran’s story comes from his chapter in the book “To The Hilt: A Sword Swallower’s History of Sword Swallowing” by sword swallower Dan Meyer and sideshow historian Marc Hartzman (Schiffer Publishing), now available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Target, Walmart and more:
