Eddie Dawes is legendary in the World Of Magic for his scholarship. All his History of Magic work is thoroughly researched, exremely well illustrated with photos, drawings, woodcuts, playbills etc. The Great Illusionists deals with the beginning of Magic & goes through the centuries uptil Houdini.It is, as all Mr. Dawe's work so very readable & informative. A MUST for everyone interested in Magic. The E Bay copy( from Canada) was sent to a young USA magician who is thrilled with it.
