Eric Lewis is one of the great minds in magic who came up with many great effects during his lifetime.  These 3 books represent the documentation of his inventions and incorporate many of his earlier writings which have been edited and rewritten and new illustrations drawn.  These books incorporate much of the history behind the tricks which makes for interesting reading. This was conceived as trilogy and that was what was delivered, exactly 3 volumes.  Lewis was also an expert craftsman and began building tricks at a young age.  Many of Lewis' effects have also been commercially produced including many by Milson Worth.

There has been a discussion going on in many online forums and a topic that comes up a lot from time to time at conventions etc. It seems that the discussion that comes up a lot derives from performers performing the sub trunk illusion and people wondering if it is too similar to the Pendragons or to some other illusionist's acts.

The series is an amazing set of books especially when you consider all the contents were dreamed up by one man.  The first Volume was published in 1981 and Volume 3 was published in 1999.  Volume 3 was also issue with a comb bound index to the 3 volumes which is helpful in locating any Jack Hughes trick or illusion you can think of.  The volumes are all well illustrated and contain ample descriptions for the builder to create their own version of the tricks.
