The Boys' Book of Magic: the Art of Conjuring Explained and Illustrated

Originally published in the 1930s, this is an excellent book for beginners, offering simple instructions along with clear diagrams. None of the tricks require the purchase of any aditional conjuring material. The book offers much practical advice on putting together a magic show and some intersting information on the history of magic. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Hesperides Press are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
