In all the "whats your favorite book" threads, I have never seen this book posted. I have some Annemann books and the complete Jinx, but have allways wondered if this book is worth the price or not, relative to owning some of the more well known books individually.
Any thoughts? Thanks Matt |

The book has everything Annemann published and more. Biographical information is dispersed inbetween and through out. Great book!

I love the book!!!
In fact it is one of my absolute favorite books, because i am a big fan of Annemann. There are some wonderful pictures in it. A complete serie of pics showing Annemann doing the bullet catch. I am proud to own it. Thomas |

So is it better for the historical information or does it have usefull stuff beyond the annamenn classics.
I watched footage of the annemann bullet catch on a documentary. TOTALLY AMAZING, HAS TO BE WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST DRAMATIC BULLET CATCH EVER. Matt |

In that book there should be everything ever published by Annemann.
Beside that there are a lot of reprints of Annemanns Comercial Sheets he used to sell his effects. Interesting to read because it shows how he saw his effects. I can not compare it with his single published books because i have not bought them. Thomas The book is realy huge! |

The book is great from a historical perspective and also for the effects. Although most (if not all) of the material is available elsewhere (PME, Jinx) it is arranged in historical order which gives some real insight into the creative development of one of the great masters of our art.
