This is a very unique book that will instantly grab at the heartstrings of those who experienced the 60's and 70's. It will slowly and enrichingly grab the hearts of everyone else.

We are all amply provided, with moral maxims, which we hold with more or less confidence, but an insight into their significance is not attained without reflection and some serious effort.

It has been strongly impressed upon me for some years past to write an account of the wonderful experiences I have passed through in my investigation of the science of Spiritualism.
