Volume 2 is devoted to breakthroughs in Cups and Balls work. Other chapters offer manipulative tricks and routines for the platform and stage, invaluable utility devices that can create apparent miracles, and innovations for the Vanishing Birdcage, Zombie and the Nest of Boxes. THE BOOKS OF WONDER may well be one of the most important works on magic ever written. In its pages are found important contributions to conjuring's storehouse of tricks, psychology and philosophy. But most important, these volumes chronicle one man's lifelong love affair with magic in a way never before achieved. HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!
