Heroes of Magic by John Fisher - Book

\n

Acclaimed television producer und Autor John Fisher hat eine unübertroffene Auswahl von Magiern in den Seiten von Helden der Magie zusammengetragen. Kombinierend aus eigener Erfahrung, hinter den Kulissen Geschichten und tiefem historischem Verständnis, fangen jede Biografie ihre Essenz auf. Leben, Anekdoten und historische Leistungen sind in diesen Seiten zu finden, reich an persönlichen Profilen von Leben, oft im Dunkeln gehalten.

\n

Aufgezeigt werden hier sowohl Kämpfe als auch Siege. Von dem freundlichen Zauberwerk David Devants bis zum Gedankendiebstahl Maurice Fogels; vom lachbucsonen Trickerei Tommy Coopers und Jay Marshalls bis zur geschickten Fingerspitzenmanöver Ricky Jays und Cardinis; von den grandiosen Illusionen Richiardis und Robert Harbins bis zur eleganten Zauberei Fred Kaps und Renes Lavands, diese Magier erreichten eine Stellung weit über bloße Unterhalter hinaus.

\n

Jeder von ihnen schuf Wunder, die bestehen bleiben, und Persönlichkeiten, die das Phantasie eines Generationen nach der anderen inspirieren. Durch die Seiten von Helden der Magie und den Einblick, den sie bieten, können Sie nun verstehen, was dazu führte.

\n

448 große Seiten in luxuriöser Leinenbindung mit Hartschuber und Schutzumschlag, illustriert mit Hunderten von Fotos.

\n

Mit einer Einführung durch Joel Hodgson, Erfinder von Mystery Science Theater 3000, und einem Nachwort von dem berühmten Theaterillusion-Designer Paul Kieve.

Originale englische Beschreibung

Acclaimed television producer and author John Fisher has assembled an unparalleled cast in the pages of Heroes of Magic. Combining firsthand experience and behind-the-scenes stories with deep historical understanding, each profile captures the essence of its subject. Weaving together life stories, anecdotes, and historical accomplishments, these pages contain rich and personal profiles of lives often shrouded in secrecy.

Here, both struggles and triumphs are all on exhibit. From the kindhearted conjuring of David Devant to the thought-thievery of Maurice Fogel; from the laugh-provoking trickery of Tommy Cooper and Jay Marshall to the adroit sleight-of-hand of Ricky Jay and Cardini; from the grand illusions of Richiardi and Robert Harbin to the elegant sorcery of Fred Kaps and Rene Lavand, these magicians attained a status of something much more than mere entertainers.

Each one created miracles that persist, and personas that inspire the imagination, one generation after another. Through the pages of Heroes of Magic, and the insider's view they provide, now you can understand what made that possible.

448 oversize pages in deluxe cloth bound hardcover with dust-jacket, illustrated with hundreds of photographs.
