Originally published in the 1900s, Conjuring for Amateurs is a classic, practical guide on how to perform a variety of magic tricks, with easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations.
If practised only as a hobby, conjuring is a wholesome and a moral one; and if studied diligently with a determination to succeed, it cannot fail to sharpen the wits of the person practising it. Conjuring for Amateurs may be the means of enabling the reader to astonish and amuse his friends, and the public, with the fascinating art of Legerdemain.
