First published in 1921, Match-Stick Magic is a detailed collection of puzzles, games, experiments, and magic, using nothing more than a handful of matchsticks.
This Hey Presto edition presents the complete, unabridged original text in a newly remastered pocketbook format, with restored illustrations, careful amendments for clarity, and an added author biography.
Written in a clear, practical style, Will Blyth leads the reader through mathematical puzzles, constructional experiments, table games, optical curiosities, and astonishing conjuring effects, each illustrated with simple diagrams and explained step-by-step.
