Stephen Minch & Stephen Hobbs – Geoff Latta: The Long Goodbye

“He was that good. No, he was better–because no story, no book, no photograph, not even video, will ever truly capture what it was like to see those hands up close.” -Jamy Ian Switzerland

“I first met Geoff around 1982. At that time I considered myself quite accomplished with cards and coins. Well, after only a few short hours, I realized just how wrong I was. For the first time, I was seeing the very best! Geoff’s techniques, his timing, his delivery — perfect. He had an analytical way of thinking unlike anyone I had ever sat down with. If there was a faster way to get from point A to point B, Geoff figured it out. From then on, I spent much time with Geoff, and I can honestly say, from the first day I met him right up to the present, Geoff’s talent was and is unequaled.” -Mike Gallo

“So great was his prowess that one could stare right at the sleight-of-hand, and there was nothing to see, no hint of deception, because Geoff’s execution was easy and natural perfection.” -Eric Mead

“Geoff was a wonderful sleight-of-hand performer with coins and cards. He was creative and technically brilliant. His execution of the Retention of Vision Vanish, as well as the Diagonal Palm Shift and the Classic Pass were as good as I’ve ever seen. The construction of his routines is a testament to his ingenious way of thinking about magic. I only wish you could have seen him perform in person. He was an artist.” -David Roth

Geoff He made only a few appearances but it was like seeing an Olympian. He was both impressive and a daunting talent, but he was also generous. -David Regal

“This is a book that has been a long time in coming. I have waited for 30 years to see it and it’s finally here. This amazing book will go into your library next to Roth’s Expert Coin Magic and J.B. Bobo’s Modern Coin Magic, as one of the core resources for coin magic. Geoff Latta’s work is finally emerging from the underground into the light.” Peter Samelson

“The Long Goodbye – Latta on Coins is destined to be one of the pillars in the literature of coin magic. It should be in your library.” — Michael Close

The The world of modern coin magic has given Geoffrey Latta a towering reputation as an artist and innovator, second only to David Roth. His underground reputation began in the 1970s and came to fruition in the 1980s, when a selection of his early work was featured in Richard Kaufman’s outstanding compilation, CoinMagic. His popularity has continued to grow, even after his premature death.

The Long Goodbye presents all of Latta’s known coin magic, published and unpublished. It is a testament to the brilliant innovation in coinmaking.-For years, magic enthusiasts will be learning, mastering and imitating the art of magic.

Latta’s large body of work is presented in these pages, with attention paid not only to the sleights, but also to the subtle construction, psychology and choreography that were the hallmark of his magic; the broad strokes and the fine. It is a book that no one cognizant of Latta’s accomplishments will hesitate to place beside the classic texts on coin magic.

344 pages. More than 720 photos. 48 tricks and 25 sleights.
