These magicians are recognized for their expertise and their talent. Each round is presented with a detailed explanation and a demonstration to maximize the magic effect. The book does not focus on technical refinement, but rather on the presentation and impact of the towers. With 148 explanatory photos, this book is full of innovative ideas. Please note: although some laps are simple to make, others require good dexterity and a certain technical mastery.
