The Magician - John Mulholland's Secret Life (Paperback, New)

Drawn from never-before-seen documents and many unpublished photographs. It will appeal to readers of theatre, magic and war history. John Mulholland (1898-1970) edited the magician's magazine The Sphinx for 23 years, ending the publication to be consultant to the newly born CIA in 1953. His assignments included working with billionaires and inventors, cracking codes and delving into the clandestine world of ESP research, LSD use and the secret MK-ULTRA world headed by the notorious Dr. Sidney Gottlieb. During this period, CIA Dr. Frank Olson died the day after Thanksgiving, 1953.This book examines Mulholland's role during this dramatic period in the CIA's history and goes against the current trend of accusing Mulholland as having a role in Olson's fatal fall from a hotel window.
