JOSEPH RÉOHM Story: Simone Jane The belief in magic and magical powers dates back to the earliest recorded history. The same ingenuity behind the trickery of the Trojan horse could have been used for entertainment purposes, modern magicians perform this art with illusions that distract, amaze, and mystify audiences.
