Comments: "A complete text on methods, techniques, figures, artifices, routines, etc., for performing one of the great classics in the repertoire of magic. It includes modern improvements, suggestions, and ideas, together with routines eliminating the use of the key."  A very thorough coverage of the Linking Rings, as browsing through the contents list will reveal. I believe this is available in a recent reprint. Recommended.
