Houdini: Magic Mediums & Murder

Rate this book
Houdini was the most charismatic, popular, and controversial entertainer on the planet during his career. He was a consummate self promoter, the undisputed master of magic, and the first escape artist. In an age before instant access to everything, Houdini became a household name the world over. The iconic example of an American success story, Erik Weisz was born into an impoverished immigrant family, then rose from obscurity to become, HOUDINI! The first magician to vanish an elephant and escape from Scotland Yard, Houdini was also one of the first people to own and fly an airplane. He was one of the first owners of a motion picture company who wrote, produced, directed, acted - performed his own stunts - in his own movies. Houdini authored several magic books sharing a few of his secrets, however most went with him to the grave. The circumstances of his death prompted immediate speculation as to whether or not he had been murdered. Was this enigmatic superstar snuffed out by a jealous lover, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, a religious zealot, or was the man who could escape anything, the victim of an accidental prank? 58 actual pages.
