Kort by Stephen Minch

Milt Kort rubbed elbows with all the best magicians of his day, and developed some beautiful, classical material worthy of close study. This book is a treasure trove of clever, fun magic. But the book is also beautiful. Sandra Kort is one of our favorite illustrators, and Stephen Minch’s writing is unparalleled in our industry.

The book is also peppered with short essays by Kort about funny things that happened while performing, tidbits of wisdom, and other musings. These essays help break up the tricks and make this a fabulous book to get lost in!
