This is the only book (the first one) of a three book set that was reprinted in paperback.
Whether you are into rope tricks or not this book is still a must.
Rope tricks can be performed close up on stage and in Cabaret, so they are suitable for everyone.
It's always handy to know a rope trick or two and with this book you are spoilt for choice.
Some of the tricks could do with a few more diagrams but on the whole the drawings and clear and easy to follow.
This book should be on any serious magicians library shelf
