To become a master in anything you have to pay attention to the details. This ebook is all about details, the details of sleight of hand with cards.
Excerpt from the foreword:
You may ask, "Who wants to read long, complicated algorithms? Who enjoys atomic analysis? Why does magic have to be so technical?" The answer to these questions is implicit in this book.
Almost everyone has heard of the Vernon Touch. It has been lauded by countless respected names in magic. What is the Vernon Touch? In brief, it is nothing more than fastidious attention to details. Great magicians like Vernon and Marlo are detailists; they are artists who strive for perfection. This is why Vernon has frequently quoted Michelangelo's aphorism:
"Perfection consists of trifles, but perfection itself is no trifle."
Great magicians realize that perfection consists of countless small elements; that it demands a certain calculated specificity. The delicacy and subtlety of a card expert's performance is due to little things, and the sum total of these tiny bits and pieces constitute what I call "card finesse".
