A top-secret manual for training CIA field agents in deception and sleight-of-hand was thought to be a rumor…until a single surviving copy was discovered in the agency’s archives. In 1953, a top-secret manual teaching agents sleight-of-hand and other deception techniques was written for the CIA by America’s then most famous magician. All copies were believed destroyed by the CIA’s purge of the infamous MKULTRA documents in 1973, and there was no proof of the manual’s existence . . . until a copy was discovered among the CIA’s recently declassified archives. Along with the original text, espionage historian H. Keith Melton and longtime CIA gadgeteer Robert Wallace provide an introduction illuminating the history of CIA agent deception and dirty tricks, and the role of this secret manual in that highly controversial program.
