My copy of the book was purchased at a book store and came packed in a Magic Kit along with several props: Pack of Playing Cards, Magic Scarf, Magic Rope, Dice, Plastic Coins, and Thimble.
Included in the book is the trick that fooled Houdini when he saw it performed way back in the 1920s. A watch is borrowed from a spectator and placed under the center of a handkerchief. Several people are asked to reach underneath to verify that the watch is indeed still there. The magician then makes a magical gesture and whips the handkerchief away, showing that the watch is gone!
The most spectacular trick in the book is Snowstorm in China, an illusion that is performed by professional magicians around the world as a sensational closing routine for their shows. This trick is done with tissue paper, first torn into strips, then dipped in a glass of water, removed, rolled into a ball, and squeezed dry. To aid the drying process, the magician picks up a Chinese fan. As the ball of wet tissue paper is being fanned, the tissue paper begins to turn into confetti, creating a miniature snowstorm that fills the air and covers the stage.
This book is beautifully illustrated with 1,000 full color photographs. There is an elaborate table of contents in front and a detailed index in back, along with a brief glossary and a helpful international list of magic shops with their street addresses and Internet URLs, but no bibliography.
Einhorn's book contains much of value for the budding magician from junior high age on up. More seasoned magicians, whether amateur or professional, will also find items in this book which can be added to their repertoire.… (plus d'informations)
