Adin Ballou. An Exposition of Views Respecting the Principal Facts, Causes and Peculiarities involved in Spirit Manifestations. Boston: Bela Marsh, Publisher, 25 Cornhill (1852).
(275 x 120 mm) pp. 256. Dark brown publishers binding, with gilt title on spine. Spine panel lifing exposing 19th century binding waste, endbands lacking, and foxing and discolouration throughout. Despite flaws a very nice copy of a particularly rare book on ghosts and their manifestations. It examines phenomena like rappings and mediums, aiming to authenticate these events while offering Christian, rational interpretations of their causes and messages. Overall GOOD condition.
