There it is...sitting on my couch...wrapped in plastic. I found it...I finally found it, and now I have it.
It's shiny blue cover calls to me...the book is big....big....big. I carefully take off the plastic, and flip through the pages. Words, illustrations, techniques.....MAGIC! On the back, sits David Roth peacefully smiling....almost saying "This is the new Bible of coin Magic." I notice Kaufman's name, I notice Dai Vernon praising Roth, I notice the Magic. It is here, and I have it. Nearly 400 pages of coin magic history, technique, sleights, routines, and methods. I sit it next to my copy of Bobo's and now realize I have the Old and New Testament of Coin Magic. This is "David Roth's: Expert Coin Magic."
"Genius is another word for magic, and the whole point of magic is that it is inexplicable." - Margot Fonteyn

Hopefully you mainly do coins. Get into cards and the book will get lost within the million card books.
Expert coin magic is a great book though. Dave |

Astinus,
What a eloquent way to phrase it: "The Old and New Testament of Coin Magic". Mike
Magic is a vanishing Art.
This must not be Kansas anymore, Toto. Eschew obfuscation. |

This book is great. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. I think I have learned as much as I need from it. If anyone is interested. Check over to the "books and lecture notes forsale or trade" section.

Who knows, it could happen. But in the mean time, Brian has financial obligations and cut hours at work. Someday I'll probably pick it up again. We'll see. For now, the book has been sold.
