520    From the prizewinning Jewish Lives series, an exuberant 
       biography of the world's greatest escape artist. In 1916, 
       the war in Europe having prevented a tour abroad, Harry 
       Houdini wrote a film treatment for a rollicking motion 
       picture. Though the movie was never made, its title, 'The 
       Marvelous Adventures of Houdini: The Justly Celebrated 
       Elusive American,' provides a succinct summary of the 
       Master Mystifier's life. Born Erik Weisz in Budapest in 
       1874, Houdini grew up an impoverished Jewish immigrant in 
       the Midwest and became world-famous thanks to talent, 
       industry, and ferocious determination. He concealed as a 
       matter of temperament and professional ethics the secrets 
       of his sensational success. Nobody knows how Houdini 
       performed some of his dazzling, death-defying tricks, and 
       nobody knows, finally, why he felt compelled to punish and
       imprison himself over and over again. Must a self-
       liberator also be a self-torturer? Tracking the restless 
       Houdini's wide-ranging exploits, acclaimed biographer Adam
       Begley asks the essential question: What kind of man was 
       this?
