The History of Spiritualism (Vols. 1 and 2)

by Arthur Conan Doyle

Overview

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle published The History of Spiritualism in 1926, offering a thorough account of the movement which began in 1848 with the Fox Sisters, but had been brewing since long before. Doyle was one of the loudest and best-known evangelists for the religion in the early twentieth century. He, and its millions of followers, believed that we never die-we merely move on to another plane. Doyle's evidence, and the Spiritualist mediums who led the way, are all to be found within these pages. This re-publication is unabridged and maintains all of the author's British English spellings.

Editorial Reviews

"The History of Spiritualism, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is a first-class, workmanly job. Sir Conan has the courage of his convictions. He believes in spiritualism, and he is not ashamed, as many others, to say so." - Frank Wilstach, The Philadelphia Inquirer, October 16, 1926.
