M. J. Williamson recounts his investigations of Spiritualist manifestations and develops an explanation of the invisible agents he believed were involved. This 1873 volume revises material from his anonymously published The Invisibles of 1867 and adds an account of another world together with theories of light, sound, electricity, and heat.
An introductory narrative leads to explanations of the author’s experiences, a discussion of modern Spiritualism, and extended criticism of contemporary physical theories. Later chapters consider death, reported phenomena, and published narratives of apparitions and séances. Personal testimony and speculative natural philosophy sit side by side throughout this substantial historical work. The original pages and decorative binding are preserved. Digitized copy: Library of Congress.
