![]() ![]() The number of each annotation appears in bold type. The inside column of each page (nearest the spine and surrounded by a rectangular box) is the original text from The Expert at the Card Table. The Annotated Erdnase was completely re-typeset resulting in the most readable copy of The Expert at the Card Table ever offered. Darwin's 273 annotations shed new light on the history of the various moves and effects, provide technical insight into their proper execution, give cross references for further reading and include hundreds of obscure bits of information. The copious notes he kept while meticulously dissecting each move and every sentence of The Expert form the basis for The Annotated Erdnase. One person who spent a lifetime studying every detail of this landmark book is Darwin Ortiz. Erdnase have been studied, practiced and written about by countless card experts. Even more important are the profound lessons in the real secrets of magic: naturalness, attention to detail, uniformity of action and the psychology of deception. It contains some of the most perfectly constructed sleights in all of card magic. After one hundred years, it is still considered the foundation upon which modern card magic is based. One thing they all agree on is that no other book in the history of card manipulation deserves careful study more than The Expert at the Card Table. The top card men in the world disagree on many things. ![]()
