A BOOK OF MAGIC FOR YOUNG MAGICIANSTHE SECRETS OF ALKAZAR

NOTE: The Secrets of Alkazar and A Book of Magic for Young Magicians are the same book, but with different illustration. The original hardcover edition, illustrated by Tom Huffman, is out of print. The Dover paperback edition is illustrated by Joseph K. Schmidt, the E-book by Kazu Katayama.

“One of the best books for the aspiring or neophyte magician I have come across. A great ‘early’ book so well written that even an old-timer could benefit from studying it.”

– The Linking Ring International Brotherhood of Magicians

“This is what a magic book for kids should be. Each chapter takes a classic effect and explains that effect in the context of some aspect of magic or performance theory…. serves as the general review all of us need from time to time.”

– Michael Weber, Magic Magazine
