The History of Spiritualism, Vol. II

The History of Spiritualism, Vol. II is a book by Arthur Conan Doyle, first published in 1926. This second volume continues Doyle’s thorough exploration of spiritualism, chronicling significant figures, séances, and phenomena that shaped the movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

It delves into controversial episodes and the personal experiences of well-known mediums, offering detailed accounts of spirit communication and public reaction. Written with the conviction of a true believer, the book not only documents events but also defends spiritualism against scepticism, reflecting Doyle’s deep commitment to what he saw as a profound truth beyond the material world.

The volume stands as both a historical record and a passionate argument for the reality of life after death, providing valuable insight into the cultural and spiritual climate of its time.
