Recovering the Ancient Magic

It is easy to dismiss out of hand any suggestion that a real magic exists beyond that variety practiced for our mystification and entertainment on the stage. The author too started from the belief that the universe was made up of matter, force and space, with no room for anything super-physical. For eighteen years he studied magic in its various forms, fourteen of these years being spent in Hawaii. He sought to penetrate beyond the externals of native magic and to discover its basic secret. The evidence he presents is in the form of fifty-one cases given before an imaginary round-table of laymen. The incidents described are based upon either personal participation or accounts received from trusted friends, or are taken form reputable show more works on the subject of magic. Magic in all its manifestations is treated in a compelling and personal fashion, and includes fire-walking, spiritualism, levitation, mind reading, instant healing and changes in physical material.
