This book is a sequel to Card Craft - Collected Trickery, published in 1991. An advance reading of that volume or a knowledge of its contents, however, is not assumed or required. Necessary moves and sleights described in the earlier book are redescribed in full, eithe rin the introductory chapter (Covering all Basics) or in the body of a trick, although (unlike Card Craft) a general compendium of standard sleights is not included." Hartman's Card Craft has become a modern day classic of magical literature. After Craft is an equally fine publication. All cards, all fascinating, and all expertly described and illustrated.
