Top Secrets of Magic 3 by J. G. Thompson Jr.

From the introduction by Martin Gardner:

With this distinguished background it is little wonder that his latest series of books, Top Secrets of Magic, of which this is the third, is a veritable treasure trove of material, clearly and simply explained, and displaying a remarkable knowledge of what has been done and is being done today in every branch of conjuring. The large clear photographs make the text delightfully easy to follow. Magicians throughout the world will look forward now to volume 4, then 5, and as many more as Jim will find time to write, for he is putting together a series of such scope that its volumes will surely find their places among the outstanding books of the century in the literature of the art.
