With respect, 'obviously' is a very subjective word . There are many card focused books that are not as good as Mark Wilson's book as an introduction to the subject (which is what was requested). I read RRTCM BEFORE Mark Wilson which is probably why I have my bias but for me, the pictures and descriptions were clearer in the RRTCM. I guess we all learn differently but, ultimately, as we both agree - you can't go wrong with either purchase.

Sorry. In hindsight, that 'obviously' sounded a bit sarcy.

Royal Road To Card Magic or Card College?
A friend lent me his Card College volume 1 but found some of the earlier stuff quite difficult for a complete newbie such as dribbling cards i struggle with and spreading the cards between the hands any advice? stuart
