The Wanderings of a Spiritualist - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

First published in 1921, ‘The Wanderings of a Spiritualist’ is a personal account of spiritualism by the ‘Sherlock Holmes’ author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Doyle had publicly professed his belief in spiritualism some years earlier and was a keen proponent of the movement despite much public opposition and ridicule. ‘The Wanderings of a Spiritualist’ recounts the spiritualist lecture tour of New Zealand and Australia which Doyle undertook in the early 1920s. In it, he describes in detail the places he visited and the people he met and intersperses his travel accounts with his thoughts and beliefs on spiritualism. A fascinating insight into the mind of the world-famous author in the latter stages of his life.
