This book was released on 2016-05-11 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This superb guide to magic tricks uncovers and teaches the secrets behind many of the most popular magic routines and stage illusions ever invented. Perfect for beginners and fans of casual performance and stage magic, The Definitive Guide to Magic is an illustrated guidebook which examines and unveils the methods behind magic tricks, optical illusions, conjuring, coin magic and sleight of hand - to highlight just some of this epic book's topics. Revelatory in tone, each trick is explained clearly with accompanying pictures. Indeed, this guide is designed for both the general interested reader and the aspiring professional magician. Stage magic and street magic performances continues to fascinate and entrance countless numbers of interested spectators every year. The bedazzling displays put on by professional magicians remain a popular family occasion, with the simple appeal of the mystical and unusual continuing in force as great entertainment. In addition to stage magic, sleight of hand tricks and conjuration, this book intensely examines the circus and street performance arts of fire eating, sword swallowing and juggling. Completing this impressive guide is an examination of ventriloquy and shadowgraphy - the art of making shapes and animals appear as shadows of your hand. Theatrical magic shows have ensued and endured for over a century, impressing and enrapturing audiences with their flamboyancy and apparent display of the impossible. Little wonder too, being as the departure from the norm of routine characterises much of what we term entertainment. Street and casual performances of magic meanwhile have gone on for much longer, stunning those fortunate enough to bear witness for aeons. The mission for this primer is multipurpose: the author's first desire to elevate the knowledge of tricks among the general spectator. His intention is not to upset the entertainment value magic no doubt offers, but to make its cunning and technical mastery all the more worthy of observation and admiration. What can be more impressive than seeing a magician who has, in all likelihood, practiced and performed tricks thousands of times do so with a genuine and preserved passion as a thrilled crowd looks on? Other than enlightening people, this guide's second purpose is its intention to motivate the aspirant magician. The pages are something of a test: if the reader finds the descriptions to be a 'spoiler' of sorts, then perhaps you are better involved with magic as a spectator, not a performer. If your reaction is different - as mine was many years ago as I was shown the workings of my first few staple magic tricks - and you are curious or eager, or even have ideas to improve or elaborate on what's written, then you may have the makings of a musician inside of you. The third and final motive is perhaps a little idealistic, but essentially has the benefit of all at heart. To the author, the wrapping of magic tricks in arcane secrecy is counterproductive; they should be unveiled for others to learn and be all the more fascinated. As for professional musicians who jealously guard their craft? They should invent new and even greater tricks - for the limit is only the imagination - and leave the foundations readily accessible by the interested public. This book was composed by professional magician and performer of over 20 years experience Charles G. Wright, so rest assured that you are in good (and dexterous) hands throughout the explanations, and will emerge knowledgeable.

Book excerpt: The present work occupies a unique field in the extensive literature of magic. Little attention had been given at the time to the exposé of stage illusions, which are of great interest as they are so largely based on ingenious applications of scientific principles. There is always a great charm about the stage, and the methods of producing the effects which give realism to the drama. Optics, mechanics, sound, and electricity have all been pressed into service by the prestidigitateur. In the present work great attention has been paid to elaborate tricks of this nature, and in many cases the exposés have been obtained from the prestidigitateurs themselves. Many of the best illusions of Robert-Houdin, Dr. Lynn, Professor Pepper, Bautier de Kolta, Heller, Herrmann, Maskelyne and Cooke, and Kellar are clearly explained. The introduction by Henry Evans, contains a brief but remarkably complete history of magic art from the earliest times to the late 19th century, with special attention being given to amusing incidents in the careers of celebrated necromancers. Reprint of the 1897 edition; the work has been converted and retouched for maximum quality, however some imperfections are to be expected.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Magic: Stage Illusions and Scientific Diversions, Including Trick Photography Far back into the shadowy past, before the building of the pyramids, magic was a reputed art in Egypt, for Egypt was the cradle of magic. The magi eiaus of Egypt, according to the Bible chronicle contended against Aaron, at the court of Pharaoh. The Hebrew prophet cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent. Then Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers: now the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments. For they cast down every man his rod and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. [exodus vii. 11, The late Robert Heller, prestidigitateur, traveler in the Orient, and skeptic, once told 'me that he had seen this feat performed in Cairo many times by the Dervishes. The rods actually were serpents and hypnotized to such an extent as to become perfectly stiff and rigid. When thrown upon the earth and recalled to life by sundry mystic passes and strokes, they crawled away alive and hideous as ever. Said Heller: It was in the open air that I saw this strange feat performed. Transferred to the gloomy audience chamber of some old palace, where the high roof is supported by ponderous stone columns painted with hieroglyphics, where rows of black marble sphinxes stare at you with unfathomable eyes, where the misc en scene is awe-inspiring - this trick of the rods turning into serpents becomes doubly impressive, and indeed to the uninitiated a miracle.
