 Steinmeyer at his Best November 4, 2008
S. Dawson (UT)
Wakeling was a magical one-of-a-kind who could conjure with the best of them. His design work with Mark Wilson is legendary, but Steinmeyer brilliantly explores the impressive breadth of Wakeling's creativity.
As always, Steinmeyer's writing draws in the reader as he chronicles Wakeling's creations. An absolute must-read for the magical performer.
Steinmeyer's writing... August 28, 2007

... is at all times crystal clear. His descriptions of performance and method are clear and concise and (to me at least) fascinating. A true magician in life and in his writing, he conjures performances from a half century ago that make the reader feel as if he has actually witnessed the work of the master magicians. Highly recommended.

Orgiinally bought this because of the claim it teaches tricks, however the tricks are outdated and mostly bar room oriented. It's plus side is it reveals alot about the magician Alan Wakeling's life and magic inspiration.
The very best book that you can get about Mr Wakeling October 23, 2005
