  • Fine research clarifies Thurston the man and fine writing makes this book compelling. All JS's books on magic are a must! Mr. S--would you consider writing a book on Downs? I believe that his correspondance was donated to Brown University. I also heard a story or two from Jay Marshall about T Nelson Downs that piqued my interest all the more.

  • Jim! Great interview and awesome book. I read it straight through.

  • A great biography I am reading right now. Thanks Steinmeyer.

  • awww... no one remebers him...

  • Just finished this terrific biography. Steinmeyer does it again!
