Written by male model/master magician Handsome Jack (with footnotes by John Lovick), this treatise is a rarity in the magic world: it's as funny (and attractive) as it is instructive. Handsome Jack, etc. details twenty stand-up (and close-up) routines with complete scripts, histories, and commentary on their development and performance.In addition to Jack's urbane descriptions, Lovick provides two essential essays on the subjects of scripting and persona.
In this volume, Ross Bertram, noted Canadian magician, gambling authority, and coin magic expert, gives magicians the best of his many years of performing experience. It includes over 400 photos to explicitly portray every detail of the text.
