Hellis in Wonderland changes that, allowing you to read and study Hellis's magic exactly as Hellis taught it. The content is based on a hand written notebook from Peter Lane's collection, written by Hellis and an unknown student, that describes the magic thatHellistaught in his lessons. Very likely it is the same material he taughtProfessor HoffmannandDr. Holdenand which so impressed Devant. At last, one hundred and thirty seven years after the lessons were given and one hundred and fifteen years after the teacher died, you can discover whyHellisearned such a reputation in his day.
