Originally published in 1897 Hours With the Ghosts or Nineteenth Century Witchcraft. Illustrated Investigations into the Phenomena of Spiritualism and Theosophy. In this work the Author has endeavoured to give accurate accounts of the lives and adventures of celebrated mediums and occultist, which will prove of interest to the reader. The rise and growth of the Theosophical cult in this country and Europe is of historical interest. Theosophy pretends to a deeper metaphysics than spiritualism, and numbers its adherants by the thousands; it is, therefore, intensely interesting to study in its origin, its founder and its present leaders. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
