{"product_id":"houdini-jason-lutes-9781368042888","title":"Houdini: The Handcuff King","description":"\u003cb\u003e\"I have escaped out of more handcuffs, manacles, and leg shackles than any other human being living.\"\u003c\/b\u003e Harry Houdini mesmerized a generation of Americans when he was alive, and continues to do so over ninety years since his death. This is a snapshot of The Handcuff King's life, centering on one of his most famous feats. As Houdini prepares for a death-defying leap into the icy Charles River in Boston, biographer Jason Lutes and artist Nick Bertozzi reveal Houdini's life and influence: from the antisemitism Houdini fought all his life, to the adulation of the American public from his hounding by the press, to his loving relationship with his wife Bess from his egoism to his insecurity from his public persona--to the secret behind his most amazing trick! And it's all in graphic form, so it's fresh, original, and unlike anything previously published about this most fascinating of American showmen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jason Lutes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1368042880\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781368042888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Little, Brown Ink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/24\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.70w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e114393 \/ Houdini: The Handcuff King\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jason Lutes","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994051674367,"sku":"9781368042888","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e33059c1-1e78-4152-8951-cd9a8a481c55.jpg?v=1683327844","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/houdini-jason-lutes-9781368042888","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
