Synopsis
A memoir of 52 years of an extraordinary life. John Hart left Cambridge to join the RAF, where his talent for entertaining others fast came to light, initially as a conjuror. On his demobilisation from the RAF he began working on his father's poultry farm, but magic was his first love. He married his wife Mary in 1952, and with her help and encouragement he became an all-round children's entertainer: from the smallest children's party to the furthest reaches of high society. This volume features amusing anecdotes about the ups and downs of his varied career until his retirement in 1991. John Hart is a Gold star member of the Inner Magic Circle and a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians. He has won the Home Counties Magic trophy for "Most Entertaining Act" on seven occasions.

Some really funny ancedotes
Being a magician is tough. That is the conclusion i came to after reading this book, if you are a magician or it's your hobby and want to go off and start perfoming shows read this book. Some of the stories all revolve around the shows the author performs and some of them are very humorous.

I must admit i really enjoyed this book and it has helped me have a better understanding of a working professional magician
