Houdini, Harry. The Right Way to Do Wrong. Boston, 1906. Red pictorial wraps. Portrait frontispiece, illustrated. 8vo. Spine toned and soiled, but tight and crisp binding, and overall good condition. Nice copy. This was Houdini's first book, and treats the subjects of con men, cheating, and crooked gamblers with some detail. Because the book was cheaply produced, it is generally found disbound or in poor condition.
