$9.95 Don't Look Now! The Smart Slant on MisdirectionAl Leech
Al Leech wrote this classic text on the presentation of magic in 1948, and it has been essential reading ever since. The ebook goes into depth on the application of psychology to magic, misdirection, how best to fool people, how to make them like you, and similar topics.
"The many classics on the subject that predated it were ambitious and well intended but full of air and
nonsense. But this modest thing pointed the way. Its historical importance would be reason enough to put it out. But in its modest little way, it has never been bettered. It remains fresh and valuable today." - Michael Landes

$9.95 Dynamite MentalismGeorge B. Anderson
This is a 15-minute one-man routine with no props or gimmicks, an act that can baffle and stun your audiences because they can't have the faintest idea of how it's done. No questions are written down, nothing is said by the spectator, and yet you answer the question or problem of which he's thinking. You do it without any obvious "fishing" of any kind. And you do this not with just one person but with as many as ten, as time allows, regardless of the makeup of any particular audience.
George Anderson developed a unique "no questions written" approach to the Q&A act which he developed to... ★★★★★ $9.95 You, Too, Can Read MindsGeorge B. Anderson
The sequel to It Must Be Mindreading, this ebook reads like a novel - fast-paced, exciting, and with powerful effects.
Excerpt from the introduction:
And I suddenly realized that here was another book - a book with a different and daring concept of mental magic - workable mental magic.
Again, as in my first book, these are all one-man effects - but the emphasis is on audience participation. The general premise is, "You, too, can read minds," and you prove the statement. In each case, the volunteer from the audience will know how you conveyed information to him, but he shouldn't have any idea how you got... $15 Ireland's Year Book 1960Frances Marshall & Jay Marshall

Excerpt from the introduction by Robert Parrish:
It appears that there have always been roving showmen: minstrels, montebanks, travelling players. Being such a trouper is a bit different from being an actor, or performing artist per se. You are not booked, your coming is not arranged for. You do not depend upon any of the machinery that makes the showman an organization man. You just take to the road and keep moving.
Such showmen differ from pure vagabonds in that they have a calling; to perform. This distinguishes them from the great American character the Confidence Man, although the Confidence... $10 Magic Inc.
