In this exciting nonfiction narrative, HP Newquist explains how the world's most famous tricks were created, unlocking the secrets behind centuries of magic and illusion, from the oracles of ancient Egypt and the wizards of medieval Europe, to the exploits of Houdini and modern practitioners such as Criss Angel.
