Long out of print, this is one of the most significant theoretical books on magic ever written. A must-read for serious magic students.
Arturo de Ascanio y Navaz (1926-1997), is regarded as the father of Spanish card magic. A lawyer by trade and an amateur magician, he devoted a good part of his life to magic and was one of the founders of the prestigious Escuela Mágica de Madrid. His books include his theories, thinking, philosophy, and the entirety of his card magic, including his legendary routines (with over thirty previously unreleased tricks), all full of the Ascanian touch.
