Published in 1919, this is a very thorough and matter-of-fact account of the author's six years experiences with the supernatural, whereby topics include automatic writing, the sinking of the 'Titanic', Hugh Lane and the sinking of the Lusitania, working the ouija board, holding seances and proof of the after world. It's a fascinating read, more so because Travers Smith refuses to be dramatic about her hard-won findings and seems quite unable to exaggerate to impress - one can't help trusting her all the more for this.
Loved this book! My copy is ancient and finally I've found time to read it and boy I'm glad I did. The author shares research with the reader. The experiments with the spirit world are refreshing as are are the explanations on spirit interaction with the living. Nowadays attitudes to mediums and the spirit world vary and this book blows away the cobwebs with ease, stating there's another world out there beyond most folks earthly senses.
