No man risked death so darlingly; no man was so pursuid by its shadow. He exposed mediums who claimed to communicate with the dead, yet prayed that one would be genuine. Death and the magician, here available in paper for the first time, is the most recent and up-to-date biography of the legendary escape artist. It reveals the secrets to some of Houdini's most puzzling tricks, and includes an extensive, annotated bibliography that revies all the important literature on the man and his magic.
