First published in 1976. This title brings the Victorian era to
life with stories of its spectacular leading magicians, conjurers,
illusionists, escapologists, scientific experimenters and
tricksters. Geoffrey Lamb describes the kind of people they were
and the kind of things they did, whilst keeping intact the mystery
surrounding their feats. This skilful reconstruction of this branch
of nineteenth-century entertainment gives us a fascinating insight
into Victorians and how they liked to be amused. This title will be
of interest to students of history.
