Bill Severn wrote so many great books. Were the routines that he contributed to _Boys Life_ ever collected and published as a book?

The material that he wrote for BOYS LIFE magazine was "geared" to Boy Scouts to use when they were helping Den Leaders at Den Meetings. Dens were composed of Cubs, ages 8 to 10, so the tricks had to be appropriate for those ages, and the props had to be readily available in the average home.

I THINK that the "Cub Scout Magic Book" was a "compilation" of previous Boys Life articles, but, I may be wrong. I sold my copy, years ago. I'm not even certain that that is the correct title.

I agree, his books were just great! He made it seem as if you could easily make the props. And he gave a suggested patter....
