Nick Trost is well known for his simple, easy-to-do card magic. He uses subtle moves and principles rather than difficult sleight of hand to produce entertaining card effects. The entire set of volumes contains his best card effects, plus variations by his fellow magicians. Many of these card creations came from his series of notebooks and most have not been published previously. This volume alone contains 11 chapters describing over 100 tricks. Here are a few of the areas covered: Coincidences, Transpositions, Court Cards, Special Decks, Gambling Tricks, Packet Tricks, Poker Tricks, and ESP Cards. Also included is an appendix of useful sleights and subtleties. Hard cover with dust jacket--300+ pages.
