Customer Reviews

Great reference on victorian spiritualism!

I really enjoyed this book. As a fan of the Victorian era and it's views of the occult, I wasn't expecting a rip-roaring yarn or a frightening ghost story (apparently other readers were?) The author presents the information in a manner-of-fact way that is well-researched and easy to follow. If you're intrigued by the subject of Victorian occultism you can't go wrong here, give it a read.
