    Harry Houdini, born Eric Weiss on March 24, 1874, was a legendary magician and escape artist who gained international fame for his daring and death-defying stunts, such as escaping from handcuffs, chains, and locked containers, often submerged underwater. His incredible physical strength, skill at manipulating locks, and next-level charitable acts made him a household name. 
In addition to his escape acts, Houdini was a passionate debunker of fraudulent spiritualists and mediums. He believed that their tricks were performed using natural means—not ghostly manifestations or the ability to speak with the spirits. Houdini's crusade against fake spiritualists was so intense that he even conducted experiments to communicate with his wife after death, which ultimately failed. He continued to perform and innovate until his death on October 31, 1926, in Detroit, Michigan, leaving behind a legacy as one of the greatest magicians and escape artists of all time. 
Never has a biography been so successful at making you feel like you are really there, reliving every moment with Harry and his wife, Bess. Whether you are a student needing information for a term paper, or simply someone who enjoys a riveting tale of gritty determination, Houdini: Master of Escape will provide you with what you need.
