Elliott's Last Legacy was a book by Dr. James William Elliott published in 1923.
Elliott died before he could finish this book. Clinton Burgess and Harry Houdini collected Elliott's notes and fill in some of the missing explanations.
Burgess was bitter when the book was published because Houdini ended up taking most of the credit. Houdini even put his name on the cover in large bold letters.
