Tricks of the Imagination contains twenty-five fully realized routines, using a cast of gods and dyslexic sign painters, gypsies and con men, gamblers and nuns, computers and haunted rooms. With these presentations the reader is shown that Real Magic lies not in the tricks, but in how they are told.

Robert E. Neale's material offers drama and humor, elements that involve an audience emotionally while building an atmosphere of genuine magic.

This volume is at the same time an important work on close-up presentation, a collection of diabolically clever secrets and one of the most entertaining magic books you will ever read.
