Greg and Felicity's History of Magic

Professional magician and magic fan Greg Chapman shares stories from the history of conjuring, from the earliest recorded magic trick to the present day. From Ancient Greece and Rome, through the Dark Ages and the Witch Trials, and coming through some of the Great Victorian Magicians and on to modern magicians, this is an entertaining and informative journey through the history of magic which manages to create a book which is both wide-ranging and deeply personal.
