Horace Leaf presents an early twentieth-century introduction to spiritualism, describing the experiences and arguments through which its supporters understood communication with the dead. He connects accounts of séances and mediumship with broader questions about survival after death.
The chapters discuss forms of alleged spirit manifestation, the interpretation of evidence, objections to spiritualism and the movement’s relationship with religious belief. Leaf also places contemporary practices within a longer history of experiences attributed to spirits. This is the complete 1919 American edition, preserving the original printed pages and the author’s own exposition.
