The Life and Times of a Magical Family 1939-2010
Dive into the gripping third volume of The Davenport Story, a meticulously documented journey through the lives of a family whose passion for magic withstood the trials of time. Beginning in the throes of World War II, this narrative takes you through an era marked by conscription, relentless bombings, severe shortages, and the looming threat of invasion. Discover how Gilly Davenport, a figure of resilience and ingenuity, navigated these turbulent times to steer the family business to safety, all while safeguarding the family’s legacy and their love for magic.
This volume is not merely a historical account but a testament to the daring and creativity of a family that lived and breathed magic. Explore the evolving art of magic through the eyes of the Davenports, who were privy to the inner workings and secrets of Britain’s greatest magicians. From John Calvert’s acclaimed London debut in 1952 to Kio’s mystifying performances, and from Sorcar’s Cut & Restored Tongue illusion to Gus Davenport’s groundbreaking close-up show that astonished Jay Marshall, this book offers a treasure trove of enchanting tales.

- Hard bound with a vibrant color dust cover.
- Over 600 illustrations, including full-color images.
Whether you are a history enthusiast, a magic aficionado, or a collector of rare books, The Davenport Story Volume 3 promises to be a captivating addition to your library, offering insights into not just the Davenport family, but the golden age of magic itself.
The Life and Times of a Magical Family 1939-2010
The second volume of the Davenport family’s story starts where it could have ended with World War II. Conscription, bombings, crippling shortages and the real threat of invasion all conspired to end the family’s dreams of continuing with the business they loved. Dame Fortune chose one man to pull the company through those testing years. That man was Gilly Davenport, and the story recounts how he overcame the horrors of the war, government bureaucracy and restrictions to ensure the businesses survived yet, at the same time, cared for the family.
However, the story is not just about the business. It is about what the family is passionate about – magic. You are taken through its stages of change to the present, and on the way, you will meet the leading players. As the family knew the stars who performed in Britain, they also knew their secrets. For example, read Gilly’s detailed account of John Calvert’s acclaimed debut in London in 1952 and Kio’s show, which baffled leading magicians but not Gilly. Other secrets such as Sorcar’s Cut & Restored Tongue and Gus Davenport’s never-before-seen close-up show, which amazed Jay Marshall, are carefully recorded.
Volume 3 of The Davenport Story, 536 pages, hard bound, color dust cover and over 600 illustrations including color.
