Comments (from Magic, Inc. catalog): During his Princeton years, Russell worked in a nightclub doing close-up magic, and he has frequently entertained in that medium in his busy New York life since. He knows the value of a card trick that "entertains" and this is what he focuses on in "Master Palm." Careful, concise thinking written up in clear language helps you to learn the 17 sleights and 15 tricks more easily. Photographically illustrated.
