An account of the resource
This collection includes first hand descriptions written by audience members. One caveat: some of these may have been promotional blurbs rather than actual accounts by audience members. Still, it's interesting to consider how these possibly "fake" reports fanned interest in Pastrana's performances.

The topic of the resource
Pastrana's importance in scientific discussions and as a historical figure
Description
An account of the resource
Pastrana was often marketed as being an important link between human and animal. Doctors conducted intrusive examinations of her body, writing letters that proclaimed her importance as a figure of scientific study. Pastrana also reflects some of the anxieties of her historical moment--a time when the Industrial Revolution and the Mexican American War created instability in the U.S. This collection will feature documents that suggest her importance in scientific and historical conversations.
