Magician and magic historian Margaret Steele joins host Jeff Douglas to talk about her new book, The Great Boomsky: The Many Lives of Magic's First Black Superstar. Boomsky was a magician's assistant character who was played by more than a dozen people in the decades after the American Civil War, including Isaac W. Willis. Willis became a world-class magician in his own right before settling in Truro where he became a community patriarch.
