| This is an acceptable book for beginners who can learn through reading. It does an adequate job of teaching the basics through illustrations. It also provides instruction for variations of juggling including: cigar boxes, devil sticks, hats and plate spinning. |

This is a huge book. It's over 500 pages. If you do not know how to juggle, I wouldn't buy this book. I would reccomend that you get Juggling for the Complete Klutz first. Then, once you master that book, then buy this book. Although it doesn't give very detailed instructions on how to do the tricks, it kind of encourages creativity by letting the reader interpret the illustrated diagrams how they want and possibly coming up with their own tricks based on the ones described in the book so each juggler that learns from this book will have their own individual style.
The book has sections on juggling balls, clubs, devil sticks, diablo, cigar boxes, and many others. It also includes a section on old Vaudeville tricks that could be performed, and another section on how to make money from juggling and how to put on a really good show.
I have had this book for years, and I'd say I haven't mastered half of the stuff in it yet.
It's great! |

| If I ever meet a person who has learned to juggle using this book alone then I will shake his hand and name him as the most single minded, dedicated, fanatical juggler in the country.This book is almost useless as a tutor of juggling....it may interest people in juggling and show them some of the things that are possible, but it will not teach them how to do it themselves.The author tries to teach all aspects of juggling and fails - for each chapter in the book a book of similar size could be easily written without exahausting the subject. The author shows the trick but doesn't show you the mechanics of actually learning the trick for yourself. If a complete beginner were to start learning using this book then their attempts would end in frustration... it doesn't give a true impression of the difficulty of learning the tricks, some of which would take a juggler years of practice to build up to - if they ever get that far. so, I conclude by saying that if you are looking to learn to juggle don't bother with this book (juggling for the complete klutz is a good gentle introduction, or the encyclopaedia of ball juggling for an idea of what is possible and a realistic view of how much work it takes to learn certain tricks) and that if you are interested in learning a particular type of juggling (eg. balls, clubs, devil sticks, diablo) then buy a book that specifically deals with that apparatus and be prepared to practice! |

| This book cover only the VERY basic concepts of juggling. I have lots of juggling books, and this is not one of the best. If you want to learn how to juggle 3 balls to start with, get a book on ball juggling. If you want to learn another thing, get a book on that one thing. This book misses what is sets out to do - learn you to go from a beginner juggler to a professional one. One of the few books I've bought that really disappointed me. In addition, the instructions on HOW to do the tricks are not good enough. After all, you want to LEARN YOURSELF these tricks, don't you? Yes, and not only KNOW ABOUT THEM. |
