(This review is for The Complete Encyclopedia of Close-Up Magic by Gibson - Book)

I don't know who David Haversat is, as the very well known writer of magic books and other stories, Walter B. Gibson wrote the Complete Encyclopedia of Close Up Magic. This should be in every persons library that is interested in performing magic. There are tricks in this book not found in any other book on magic. It has recently been reprinted. How lucky is the magic community. Highly Recommended!
