Review

Written by Tim Pendergast

There is no one in any magic club who has not at some time or another learned from Dr. Tarbell. There are many who lay the credit for their entire professions to the Tarbell Course, that vast storehouse of magical knowledge, painstakingly illustrated in great detail, with a text so crystal clear in simple English that students were doing the tricks almost as they read about them. Dr. Tarbell had two great God-given talents that fitted in perfectly with his acquired talent of magic-he drew like an angel and he wrote with amazing clarity.
Dr. Tarbell was a genius in creating, solving and demonstrating mysteries. The things you know cannot be done-Dr. Tarbell did. He made mystery not only an art but a science. He puzzled the magician as well as the layman. At an early age, Dr. Tarbell realized the strange power that mystery held over man and how it shaped his destiny. He saw how legends lived when facts died and how illusion too often looked more like truth than truth itself.
