Don England was quite a creative force in card magic. Every time I saw him he inspired me. Long out of print, this book was first published in 1981 & contains some of the most creative and inspiring card magic you’ll ever come across. Don was definitely one of my magic heroes. ❤️❤️❤️And I was lucky enough to be able to call Don a friend.

This book is full of amazingly creative card magic. You’ll recognize some of these effects as they have become classics in card magic and have even been performed by some of the biggest names in magic on television.
