This is a catalogue of card tricks, plain and simple. There's no foreword, no afterword, and no general discussion about performing magic.
It runs through about 100 different tricks, explaining each one. For each description, any hints and advice that Annemann cares to share are woven into the text. The tricks range from somewhat dull to very good, and involve various levels of preparation (including none at all).
Personally, I thought that this book wasn't very good. The writing is confusing in some parts, and consistently dull. In the edition I have, the typeface changes inexplicably at a couple of different points in the book. It seems as if they literally photocopied the pages from two earlier books and threw them together in this volume without bothering to match the type.
As a repository of tricks, it's serviceable, but I see no reason why the consumer wouldn't get a little more bang for his buck by purchasing a reference book that includes some discussion, and which has been put together with a little more care.
