Silence of Chung Ling Soo
Edited by Todd Karr

"I'm delighted that, through this collection, we have a chance to appreciate Robinson's inventive abilities and insights into magic, and that his portrait will, line by line, be that much clearer to us all." Jim Steinmeyer

This fascinating collection of writings examines legendary performer Chung Ling Soo, alter ego of William E. Robinson of New York, and includes:

  • More than 50 of Soo's extraordinary close-up and stage effects
  • 40 gorgeous color Soo posters from the Norm Nielsen Poster Collection.
  • Over 50 letters from Robinson to Houdini
  • Robinson's insightful articles and books, including a full reprint of his scarce Spirit Slate Writing and Kindred Phenomena
  • Plus programs, reviews, and biographical profiles, illustrated with rare photos and memorabilia.
  • 488 large-format pages, 40 color illustrations, hardbound, color frontispiece, and beautiful cover by Katlyn Breene
