WHAT ARE THE BEST MAGIC BOOKS FOR BEGINNERS?

This is actually a very hard question to answer because there are all kinds of
beginners with all kinds of backgrounds and interests. I will limit myself to
the performance of close-up where I gathered my own experience doing magic, and
there I will focus on magic with cards, coins, and mentalism. If you want to
take a shortcut and not read through the rest of my opinion here are the three
best classics which are wonderful and affordable:

 * The Royal Road to Card Magic by Jean Hugard and Fred Braue
 * The Modern Coin Magic by J.B. Bobo
 * Practical Mental Effects by Ted Annemann

THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS TO MENTALISM

This is an excerpt from Bob Cassidy's exceptional Fundamentals ebook. Many
consider this ebook the best Bob has ever written. It lists Bob's 39 most
important magic books to study to achieve mastery in mentalism. The unique
feature of this list is that Bob explains for each title why it is in his list.
So here we go ...

THE THIRTY-NINE STEPS - A MENTALIST'S LIBRARY OF ESSENTIAL WORKS

THE CIA MAGICIAN: JOHN MULHOLLAND

It is a misnomer to call John Mulholland (1898 - 1970) a “spy” or “operative.”
He was neither for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from 1953 to 1958. He
was a pedantic scholar who did field research and wrote reports. Largely
criticized by people who seek to take down his reputation as “The World’s Master
Magician” (a title he shared with Thurston). Mulholland was a tall, gangly man
with wide ears, a distinct sense of offbeat humor and was married to his wife
Pauline for forty years, and was also involved with his secretary Dorothy Wolf
longer than the relationship he had with his wife. His wife Pauline accepted
this as a condition of their marriage, saying after his death, “Johnny was so
much man that he could not be served by one woman—his Renaissance spirit so
great.” Mulholland took over the editorship of magic’s MOST esteemed magazine,
The Sphinx and…


EDWARD GALLAWAY IS S. W. ERDNASE

To read the full story, the full case of why Edward Gallaway is Erdnase, get my
book The Cardsharp and his Book.

I know this will come as a shock to some, particularly those who hold on to the
old rumor that it was an Andrews. However, this rumor cannot be substantiated.
We have to trace this rumor back from Vernon to Sprong to a Drake son who would
have to get it from his father who we don't even know had any direct contact
with Erdnase. Yet some believe this like it is an irrefutable fact. It isn't. It
simply is a hypothesis and a not particularly good one. If the name Andrews
played…

WHY LYBRARY.COM? WHY EBOOKS?

It’s been several years now since Chris Wasshuber and his venture, Lybrary.com,
became a part of the landscape of the magic community. To be perfectly frank
(and Chris can confirm this), when he and I first started having discussions
about ebooks on the various magic message boards I wasn’t just against the
concept, I was vehemently against the concept. Not that our arguments were mean
spirited (though Chris had - and in fact still has - to put up with some mean
spirited comments): they were just spirited. We both argued passionately for our
respective sides.

However, I argued as if Chris and his venture were a direct attack on…
