The Last Greatest Magician in the World

[Magic Newswire]

How does someone go from a homeless criminal to one of the biggest names in the world of entertainment? Jim Steinmeyer talks about how Howard Thurston did this and much more when we discuss his new book on the Spirit of Magic podcast : http://bit.ly/hL1pET

Thurston? Isn't he the one that Vernon fooled with the pass at the age of 7? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else...

 

[Magic Newswire]

Well... Jim and I do talk about Vernon and Thurston and Howard;s card act.

 

[BnibroC69]

Ok, I'll listen.

Just finished; it was great. I might buy the book now. I especially loved the interview you guys did with Gabe and Jason. I can't believe the Ridder book sold for $16,000!
