Harry Lorayne was an American mnemonist, magician, and author. He was well known for his incredible memory demonstrations and appeared on numerous television shows. His card magic, especially his innovations in card sleights, is widely emulated by amateur and professional magicians.
Harry Lorayne wrote these two books in the early 1960s. The first book focuses on memory techniques. It covers the link system, the peg system, and practical advice on utilizing your imagination. The second book is a self-help guide and covers other areas.
The book is easy to read and practical. It taught me about old phone numbers and how to recall faces. Some of the questions in the book have obvious answers, but that is the point. To improve your memory, you must pay attention.
I enjoyed the book. Thanks for reading my review, and see you next time.
