About This Item
Faber & Faber, publishers, London 1969 hardcover, 5½" x 8", with dust jacket Ours is an ex-library copy in transparent protective covering, with usual stamps, stickers, and barcode cut from front endpaper. GOOD book in GOOD unclipped dust jacket Ventriloquism is an illusion and a performance of this branch of 'magic' arouses in most audiences a mood of challenge. Faced with the modern television camera and zoom lenses, the performer must have absolute perfection of technique to sustain this illusion. Douglas Craggs emphasises the need to learn the correct method from the very beginning, and his first step is to explain the principles of breath control - the basis of Ventriloquism. Amusing anecdotes woven into the text.
