Book Reviews of The Secrets of Houdini
Book Review: An excellent book - an insight into his life and work
Summary: 5 Stars
This book really is excellent for the casual reader or as a reference book for the amateur magician/escapologist. It contains short stories about Houdini's life and is, in a way, a biography of the great man. It also reveals how many of his illusions or tricks and escape were done. It contains black and white photographs and line drawings - at intervals.
