Introduction

Hi.... I guess I should tell you about what I will be posting about. Its about magic. Unfortunately not the wizard and Harry Potter kind. But like the ancient magic kind. From when the first person ever began his trade of sleight of hand. To what todays magicians do to entertain a large audience worldwide. But magicians were not always entertainers. In ancient times you needed quick wits and quicker hands if you were to survive in places such as ancient Egypt or through the Dark Ages. Magicians were thieves, beggars and the desperate who mastered sleight of hand in order to survive. But then they began bewitching leaders of powerful empires to listen to their every word with small and simple tricks. Cults were formed and thousands flocked to these mysterious figures who could disappear and reappear in an instant. I will be writing about all this and more. Would you like to join me?
