Blackstone, a Magician's Life: The World and Magic Show of Harry Blackstone, 1885-1965 by Waldron, Daniel. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780916638917.

This is the story of the world and magic shows of Harry Blackstone (1885-1965), who entertained theatre-goers for over 50 seasons. Gifted with an electric presence, a magnificent voice and a master magicians mentality and skills, he played everything from showboats to vaudeville to television. Blackstones extravagant productions advertised "1001 wonders" and "an enchanting array of beautiful girls." Waldrons vivid and thoroughly researched narrative, enhanced with first-hand accounts by those who worked on the Blackstone show, presents an unforgettable portrait of a unique showman. Illustrated throughout with photographs.
