Rev. Robert Olson was obsessed with the life and career of Howard Thurston. For ten years he contributed a column to The New Tops magazine wherein he dissected the tricks and illusions of this master magician. In 1981, Micky Hades collected all of those columns into a hardbound book, measuring 8.5 by 11 inches and containing 301 pages. The production value is typical of Hades at this time meaning that the photos and posters are crudely reproduced but make no mistake, this book is packed full of information. It remains a great resource for anyone interested in classic illusions from the Golden Age. Condition is very good.
