<p>The autobiography of David Bamberg records the adventurous life and perceptive observations of one of the last great traveling showmen. Robert Parrish, who edited the book, calls it "the most engaging and illuminating document of its kind produced by a professional magician in the 20th century."

Many personalities enliven his story, including Orson Welles who proclaimed Bamberg's book "the greatest autobiography in magic."</p>
