Paperback. Condizione: New. Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin (1805-71) is often called the father of modern conjuring.

Hoffmann (real name Angelo John Lewis, a barrister) had published his own guide to magic in 1876, and both books caused controversy for revealing the secrets of stage magicians in such unprecedented detail.…
