Some Reminiscences

About this book

A spiritualist remembers a meeting, a conversation or an encounter that seemed to provide evidence of an unseen presence. Small incidents carry the weight that grand theories cannot always bear.

Some Reminiscences is valuable for its personal scale. The author's recollections belong to the social world in which belief in spirit communication entered households, friendships and public discussion. A remembered voice or an unexpectedly timed message may mean very different things to a participant and a sceptic. Those differences in interpretation are part of the history preserved in these pages.
