"Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring" by Professor Hoffmann is a detailed handbook from the 1800s that teaches readers how to become magicians. It carefully explains the secrets behind various magic tricks, using items like cards and coins, so anyone can learn the art of illusion. The book starts with an overview of magic's past and stresses that practice is key to success. It then introduces the basic equipment a magician needs, like a wand and a special table, while advising new learners to first master the simpler skills before moving on to more difficult performances.
