The Right Way To Do Wrong presents a unique opportunity to experience Harry Houdini in his own words. A collection of the master magician's interviews of police, grifters, swindlers, and criminals of all sort. These papers also give a fantastic glimpse into Houdini.

I expected another dreary book of magic, written in dated English with references to things I'd never understand. What I found is a fascinating collection of captivating essays that also open a window into who Harry Houdini! While I very much enjoyed hearing stories about how turn of the century pick-pockets plied their trade, I loved learned that Houdini has a goofy sense of humor. Peppered with corny jokes and oddball witticisms, we not only learn the secrets to some of histories greatest magicians tricks, but get a glimpse of him.

For fans of magic, or just budding con-men, I highly recommend The Right Way To Do Wrong.
