This work was written by the celebrated Houdin, who, being prompted by an honest desire to instruct those who wish to be initiated into the depths and mysteries of his art, laid bare all his professional secrets, and has treated the subject in the most eminently successful manner. By a series of lessons he has thoroughly explained the principles of the higher science. Numerous illustrations, together with full and explicit directions, make success sure, and he who desires to be the sought after and honored guest at every party or entertainment, has but to study this book. It treats on all kinds of Magic, Legerdemain, and Prestidigitation; Galvanism, Magnetism and Electricity, and is illustrated with 33 first class engravings. Mailed for 25 Cents.
