This is the second in the Cord manuscripts and is, in my opinion, the best of the 3 Cord manuscripts.

Vol 2, or Expose for the Specialist as it's also known, picks up where Vol 1 left off by discussing Norms views on the art of deception.

It covers the Bigelow Psycology towards escapes and escape artistry, teaching the reader how to deal with different situtations that could arise during a career as an escape artist.

Norm reveals many of his own unique ideas towards the art form and suggests a different approach to the traditional "Houdini" style presentation, which some will warm to and others may hide away from.

Regardless of your stand point regarding these views it is well worth reading to get a different perspective on the art as a whole. It will give the reader an insite into where the art has come from and inturn where it could go.

Dispite being written many years ago the material contained within Vol 2 can only assist the serious student in taking the art forward into the 21st Century.

As with Vol 1, this Vol is also available at http://www.ealib.org.
