Comments: Photography by Paul Bricknell. This second book
from Nicholas features the same approach as The Art of Magic
and Sleight of Hand in using over 1000 color photographs to
clearly illustrate the necessary moves. Another great book of
beginner's tricks and puzzles, but almost all magicians will find
something of use. This book and The Art of Magic were
later combined into the Ultimate (or Illustrated)
Compendium of Magic Tricks.
