Hey everyone, I am interested in starting ring on rope magic. I know many of the basics but could someone give me a great book that deals with this. Thanks a lot, any help would be appreciated.

Just to clarify things...
Finger ring? |

If it's finger rings, there's stuff throughout the literature. I'd highly recommend Ray Grismer's video "Ray's Ring & Rope Routines" available from Jeff Busby Magic. Ray virtually invented finger ring and string magic, and a lot of the stuff others have put out is Ray's, usually without credit or permission. Greg Wilson also has a good vid on this topic, teaching a lot of Ray's moves, some with credit.
If you're talking larger rings--harness rings, bangles, bracelets, linking ring singles, etc, THE book to get is Phil Wilmarth's "The Ring & Rope" book. There's also lots of this stuff in the literature by Aldo Colombini, Flip, Rink and many others, but this book has nothing but ring & rope stuff. If you're looking for a single resource devoted to this topic, this is the book to get.

Mark Leveridge's Ring and String routine is one of the best. It's No.6 in his Master Routine series:

I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three. Elayne Boosler

I was in LA and stopped by Hollywood Magic Inc. they had two copies of the video in stock on their shelf. This wasnt too long ago so if you contact them soon you may find it! Good luck. Here is the link to their website.
