Jim Thompson Magic and Mentalism

Although a banker by profession, Jim Thompson dedicated his life to magic - authoring or co-authoring numerous well regarded works on close-up, card magic, and even mentalism. He was also a frequent magic magazine contributor and served as an associate editor of the "Linking Ring." Thompson had a terse yet playful writing style, so many find his books as entertaining as they are informative.
