This substantial text merges biography with tricks. Robert Harbin was one of the most creative and prolific magicians of the twentieth century and this book contains sixty-six of his inventions including many illusions not previously explained in print. 
It also has chapters on the magician's life and career. Filled with illustrations and photographs typical of the great books published by Mike Caveney's Magic Words. 
 
Condition: Good, though with poor dust jacket. Some minor wear and a few marks to the book and page edges. (Personaly, I would discard the dust jacket, but I'll leave that choice up to the buyer.)
