He will be forever remembered as the performer who introduced to the wider world, one of the most acclaimed and astonishing illusions of all time - The Sphinx." Fans of magical historian Edwin Dawes, author of Charles Bertram: The Court Conjurer, will delight in this new limited-edition biography of a unique magician, Colonel Joseph Stodare. In 1850 Colonel Stodare was among the most noted performers in England. Yet, he died suddenly at the height of his fame at the age of 35.
