Like all Paul Osboune books this is another must. Maybe I'm from the old school but I firmly believe that you should study the history of your subject. This book does just that with the history of illusions with loads of illustrations and photos of past & present magicians.

The second half of the book is devored to plans beautifully drawn by Paul Osbourne. $65? it's worth twice that! It stands pride of place in my library with the other Paul Osbourne books.

Worth every Cent!
