Summary: The photo illustrations and quality tricks make closeup miracles for the new magician who is willing to practice a bit. Far too many other books are full of parlor tricks and children's apparatus magic, but this book takes the interested budding magician into serious magic that can be done anywhere with only the skills and showmanship taught lovingly by a fine sleight-of-hand performer. This great starter book will lead the student into more satisfying magic than most other books. Item #219421
