Published just a year before his death, Latest Magic was the final part in Professor Hoffmann’s legendary series of magic books. Forty-two years after the publication of Modern Magic, which revolutionised the world of conjuring, Hoffmann was no longer on the cutting edge of developments in the performance art. As such, Latest Magic didn’t follow the formula of his previous texts.

Latest Magic was Hoffmann’s only book to centre entirely around his own magical inventions, rather than describing those of his contemporaries. Though it didn’t achieve the success of his previous works, Latest Magic allowed the reader to see the creative side of the author for the first time. With this final publication Professor Hoffmann completed the most influential series of conjuring books ever produced.

The C.M.B. Classics Range:
 
The C.M.B Classics range are high-quality facsimiles of the great classics of magic literature, scanned in-house from original editions and painstakingly manually edited to produce clean and legible pages. These are not to be confused with unedited reprints produced from freely available low-quality scans, or automated OCR editions, available print-on-demand from numerous other retailers. This range is exclusive to CollectingMagicBooks.com.
 
We have worked closely with a long-established commercial printer in London to produce the best quality at an affordable price to bring the classics of magic within reach of all magicians. By producing the files properly and employing a commercial printer, avoiding hands-off automated print-on-demand and OCR technology, we believe these books really are the finest available at this price point.
