Synopsis
An illustrated, illuminating insight into the world of illusion from the world's greatest and most successful magician, capturing its audacious and inventive practitioners, and showcasing the art form's most famous artifacts housed at David Copperfield's secret museum. In this personal journey through a unique and remarkable performing art, David Copperfield profiles twenty-eight of the world's most groundbreaking magicians. From the 16th-century magistrate who wrote the first book on conjuring to the roaring twenties and the man who fooled Houdini, to the woman who levitated, vanished, and caught bullets in her teeth, David Copperfield's History of Magic takes you on a wild journey through the remarkable feats of the greatest magicians in history. These magicians were all outsiders in their own way, many of them determined to use magic to escape the strictures of class and convention. But they all transformed popular culture, adapted to social change, discovered the inner workings of the human mind, embraced the latest technological and scientific discoveries, and took the art of magic to unprecedented heights. The incredible stories are complimented by over 100 never-before-seen photographs of artifacts from Copperfield's exclusive Museum of Magic, including a 16th-century manual on sleight of hand, Houdini's straightjackets, handcuffs, and water torture chamber, Dante's famous sawing-in-half apparatus, Alexander's high-tech turban that allowed him to read people's minds, and even some coins that may have magically passed through the hands of Abraham Lincoln. By the end of the book, you'll be sure to share Copperfield's passion for the power of magic., An illustrated, insight into the world of illusion from the world's greatest and most successful magician, David Copperfield.

    Shipping hiccups seem to be common with this seller and my experience was no different, but not bad. Seller fixed it quickly and offered to refund shipping as a result, which was appreciated. Packed well, exactly as the picture in the listing. I'm very happy with it and will buy again if I can!

    This was my first experience buying on eBay. Cooca was super friendly and attentive throughout the entire process. It took a long time, but that wasn't he fault. When it arrived, after all the shipping issues that Cooca helped resolve, they kept their promise to refund me. I think that's very important when buying from someone, their values. The package arrived in perfect condition, well packaged, covered, and protected in bubble wrap. When I opened the figures, they were in very good conditions
