It's time for me to wrap up 2025 and take my year-end break. It was another great year for Houdini, and for me personally with the release of Escaping Obscurity: The Travel Diary of Harry Houdini 1897-1899. I'm looking forward to continuing the story next year in Handcuff King: The Rise of Harry Houdini, which is the first book in my 3-volume Ultimate Houdini Chronology.
With more and more AI slop flooding the online space, I'm happy to be moving into the world of books, which is where I learned about Houdini in the first place. I hope you'll join me. But don't worry. WILD ABOUT HARRY will continue into 2026 and beyond.
Here's a look back at the year that was.

It was a great Houdini year, John.
ReplyDeleteLike a true magician, you make each succeeding year better than the one before. You deserve a little respite. Thank you for a great Houdini year and Bravo! for all of your accomplishments in '25.
