Summary

"With a flair for entertaining and a knack for self-promotion, Harry Kellar always promised a spectacular show. [...] Author Gail Jarrow shines the spotlight on this nearly forgotten magical wizard and his dazzling illusions. Working with experts and relying on Kellar's own words and promotional posters, she reveals a man who is still celebrated and respected by magicians today. Kellar performed for kings and queens, presidents and emperors--and now he performs for you."--P. 2 of cover
