"From the audience viewpoint, an entertaining series of skillful demonstrations; but from the magician's angle, an ingenious application of simplicity and subtlety. Not a difficult sleight in the entire routine, but just notice how the performer 'works ahead' of his audience all the time!"
(from the Introduction by Howard P. Albright)
