An excellent collection of simple, yet highly effective card tricks that require no sleight of hand. Each trick is explained in detail with an entertaining presentation, notes on patter, and professional tips to bring each routine to life. Some effects require a confederate but in all cases the author provides alternative methods and presentations to eliminate the need for a help. This remastered and expanded edition includes the original 1914 publication, unabridged, plus a publisher biography and carefully remastered diagrams and amends to text for clarity.
