Houdini: The Man Who Walked Through Walls (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781387890019)

No magician has captured the imagination of the world as did Harry Houdini, his very name a byword for stunning, amazing escapes. In this authoritative biography, acclaimed author and noted psychic skeptic, William Lindsay Gresham details the life of the great man. The strands of Houdini's life are chronicled in rich detail; the stage illusions and their invention, his private life as he traveled the world, and Houdini's passion for exposing the frauds and scams of the 'psychic' world. Houdini's legendary illusions are explained and give a fascinating insight into their construction, created with simplicity that is the essence of true genius.
