Talking to the Dead - Kate and Maggie Fox and the Rise of Spiritualism

Weisberg, Barbara

Was it real or a hoax? First, the Fox sisters claimed to be in touch with spirits through seances, then they denied it, only later to reaffirm their faith in the spirit world. This book dispels much of the mystery in this late nineteenth century suspense story.
Helped along by photographic content, this book confirms that there's nothing more powerful than the presence of the dead among the living.
But a warning – not to be read after dark.
