Magician's Book of Conjuring

About this book

The audience sees a miracle; the performer sees a sequence of actions performed at precisely the right moment. Professor Hoffmann explains the practical skills that make the difference.

His manual of conjuring moves through sleight of hand, prepared objects and the handling of spectators, offering a view behind the formal elegance of stage magic. The instructions are often precise enough to show the amount of preparation concealed by a casual gesture. Reading them makes the next impossible feat feel even more impressive.
