Price
I bought it for on holliday (or as we in the states say 'vacation') to England for about £10 in a little shop in Bath.

Personal Review
Fantastic it offers a plethora of card tricks utilizing things like simple math, Magicians Wax, One way back designs, Double Backed cards, The Nikola System (a prearranged deck of which I have never heard) and a few legitimate Psychological tricks.

Grade 8.6/10 I am more into impromptu tricks so I get all sorts of those plus a lot of great ideas just waiting to be expanded upon.

This Book is ace i loved it easy to read and understand

it is well work the price

It is a fantastic book, packed with tons of card tricks. First book on card tricks i bought.

i need to replace my copy of this. Its one book that ive lost.

( it was soaked in soy sauce too.. thanks to a leeking chinese take away after a couple of pints down my local)

I couldn't believe how much this book contained when I bought my copy from Amazon for £10. Encyclopedia is the right word.

You can read it free on The Learned Pig. Definitely worth buying, though.

Anyone happen to know what was 'revised' in the 'Revised Edition'? But anyway, yes - revised or not - the EoCT is one of those books there seems to be little excuse for not having in your magic collection.

Excellent book with tricks that apply to novices as well as expert cardicians. Buy it, it's a classic of its kind.
