Review

This book is great its full of card tricks and manipulation as well as other objects like cigarettes, silks and balls. This is a great book for beginners. Every tricks is completely illustrated. The book contains tricks on cards, coins, balls, cigarettes, thimbles, silks and other misc. items. Lots of different things to do. It is very easy to learn from. It has lots of easier things to learn including harder things that take time and practice. Plus it gives you ideas on things to purchase.


Overall

Grrrrrrrreat for beginners.

Erm...that's it?!

Don't really have much to say on it, do you.

Thanks for the review but you need to give us a bit more info so we can assess the item better. Check out the Review Template and follow those guidelines as much as possible - I realise that where you buy it from will differ to where we can get it but a link to where you bought it would be a good start point. It probably won't be feasible to list all the routines etc but perhaps a list of the chapter headings with a few comments from you to indicate what sort of things are covered could be possible?

And I think you will find it's Bill Tarr not Harr.

(ever get the feeling we are picking on you?)

Sorry Gerbil - we don't want to discourage you from reviewing things but we do have an awfully high standard.

Incidentally it;s a great book. Almost one of the fundamentals of magic, and as such it deserves a great review...

I changed it, is that better.

yep

A Google search shows that there are quite a few copies on sale from brand new at the price Gerbil indicated down to second hand at less than $7.00. I guess this is one of those 'search around' items!
