About This Item
EB: Knopf. Very Good. 1983. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Alfred A Knopf, New York. 1983. Xiii, 315 pgs. Illustrated. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Ms. Brandon does a fantastic job demonstrating to, not leading, the reader through the modern history of the capial-M Medium; including the Mute Knockers, Channelers, Visioneers, and currently extinct Ectoplasmatics at a brisk pace, despite it's size. A large amount of this work happens to be the bibliography, with many references to both sides of the spiritualist debate (despite another reviewer's opinion). This is a great volume for anyone wanting to know more of Victorian/ Edwardian psychology, or interested in or unsure about psychic phenomena and would like to see the forerunners of Sylvia Browne and John Edwards. EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 315 pages .
