5.0 out of 5 stars
Nobody will play cards with you again after this!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Card Manipulations (Dover Magic Books) (Paperback)
This book remains a classic for obvious reason. In it, you learn how to make cards appear and disappear from your empty hand, how to make some of the most beautiful card fans ever conceived, and how to manipulate cards in ways most folks would never imagine. There are also several tricks in this book that use the manipulation principles involved. This book is for die-hard cardicians, but those interested in fooling their friends may find something here also

4.0 out of 5 stars
Great tricks for those willing to practice,
By Walter Reade (Appleton, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Card Manipulations (Dover Magic Books) (Paperback)
This book is a wonderful resource for those wanting to improve their sleight of hand, and contains over 165 card tricks and stunts. While the book starts with the basics, understand that the basics can be very challenging to master! Many of the tricks will require serious practice to make them polished enough to perform. The text of this book can be somewhat dense, and require a few readings to get the gist of what is being said. And while there are some difficult tricks to perform, there are a number of things the absolute beginner can pick up rather quickly.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A great book, unfortunately quite dated.,
This review is from: Card Manipulations (Dover Magic Books) (Paperback)
This is a great book. A lot of the things in this book have inspired a lot of ideas and variations. However, this book suffers from a major flaw: many of the techniques in this book are out of date, and many of the tricks would not be as powerful for today's audiences.
