Synopsis

Motoring through the countryside one Sunday afternoon, Inez Blackstone takes the road that leads to the lovely lakeside village of Colon; and soon Harry Blackstone is making Colon his regular summer quarters and home. Colon's romance with magic began that summer of 1926. Blackstone would give many of the townspeople their first taste of magic at a local citizens' club lawn party that first summer. The impression Blackstone made on the people that afternoon was very favorable. The local newspaper reported that his performance at the lawn party was the surprise of the afternoon and referred to him as the world's greatest magician. It would appear that the towns people of Colon enjoyed having a celebrity in their midst.

It has now been one hundred years since that visit. This book is about the amazing story that happened next, the story of magic in Colon Michigan. The book is arranged as a timeline, beginning in 1926 and ending in 2026.
