F. Walton, was an English author of Christian children's books, mainly but not exclusively fictional. She was the daughter of an Anglican priest and married his curate, with whom she spent four years living in Jerusalem. This book portrays the life of a travelling fair and in particular Rosalie, a girl who works as part of a theatre troupe under her domineering father. It was Walton's best-known work. The novel was twice turned into silent films. In 1918 Kenelm Foss directed 'A Peep Behind the Scenes' starring Ivy Close and Gerald Ames. In 1929 Jack Raymond made a further version. Quite a scarce book. Nº de ref. del artículo: 010186
