Look over there! Misdirection material...?

Postby Farlsborough » Jul 15th, '06, 19:21



Hey folks,
Wondered if anyone could recommend a book specifically about misdirection or that side of performance. I understand some of the basic principles - it's so woven into magic - but I wondered if anyone could recommend something that actually went into detail to an intermediate/advanced level. Rather than "try to do this when no one's looking" :P

There's a thread somewhere on TM that goes with this link but I couldn't find it.

"Magic by Misdirection" by Dariel Fitzkee and "Don't Look Now" by Al Leech are two of my favorite books on the subject.
