Par William V. Rauscher



Cet ouvrage biographique retrace la vie et les exploits de Milbourne Christopher, essentiellement entre les années 1930 et les années 1970, ainsi que l’héritage important qu’il a laissé dans la littérature magique en tant qu’auteur. Son style de présentation suave, élégant et calme ont fait de ce gentleman cultivé l’un des magiciens les plus courtisés, tant sur scène que dans d’autres formes de magie plus intimiste.

Descriptif original anglais :

This book is the story of his life, his accomplishments, and his legacy. He was, as the Baltimore Sun called him, "a topflight man of mystification". Suave, handsome, well-spoken, educated, quiet and calm in demeanor, he conjured for the best audiences both on stage and in intimate settings. He was well organized, committed to his calling, and above all, a gentleman. In this account of his life beginning with his birth in 1914, the author covers his many achievements, and especially his contributions from the 1930's to the 1970's, up until his death in 1984.
