Annotated Erdnase Bibliography
It says on the dust cover: Darwin's
comprehensive annotations can be used as an index to card magic in
print.
So, why an index to an index?
Well, I think it's sometimes practical to have an overall view of all
the indexed material. If you're like me, you'll find many uses for such
an index.

Quotations
"There is a world of
difference between a spectator's not knowing how something's done
versus his knowing that it can't be done." -- Simon Aronson
"Rabbit-in-the-hat tie clips
or cuff links are not to be worn. The 'M' ring should also be similarly
eschewed. I cannot bring myself to comment upon ties with patterns
portraying playing cards or bunnies. Certainly it is not necessary to
caution the true cardman against false moustaches or capes."
-- David Bendix
"If you were half as good as
you think you are, you'd be twice as good as you really are."
-- Dai Vernon
"There is no substitute for
skill. It is the priceless possession of every great artist in every
field of endeavor. It is instinctly felt by an audience and is
reflected in the superiority of his work"
-- Paul LePaul
