A Wizard's Tale

The world has lots of globe-trotting adventurers, magicians, jazz guitarists and poets but not too many people who have made their mark in all these areas. The humour and insights Dan Dobson brings to "The Secret League of Supermen" are equally present in this colourfully illustrated first volume of his memoirs. "A Wizard's Tale" describes Dan's wartime childhood, his early mishaps as a boy magician and the social challenges he faced as a working class scholar at an English public school.
