ON THE EDGE OF THE ETHERIC" by Arthur Findlay / 1931 / 209 pages.
Is the spirit world real and tangible? Do its inhabitants
retain their individuality? Is it true that spirit people
eat? What is the afterlife like? Do dogs, cats and other
animals survive physical death? What kind of houses do
the so called dead live in? All these questions and more,
many more are answered simply and frankly in Arthur
Findlay's "On the edge of the etheric". First
published in 1931, it has lost none of its import or
value. Indeed "Psychic News" termed it
"the most important book in all the literature of
Spiritualism." Meanwhile, adverts for it were
refused by the "Church Times" and the Church of
Scotland publication "Life and Work". Since it
first appeared, "On the Edge of the Etheric,"
has run to almost 70 editions: Mr Findlay, one of modern
Spiritualism's most scholarly and esteemed writers bases
this book upon the superb mediumship of John Sloan. He
attended his first sitting feeling "decidedly
suspicious, " of different tone and accent, they
gave their names, their correct earth addresses, spoke to
the right people, who recognized them, and referred to
intimate family matters. Never once was a mistake
made." Subtitled "survival after death
scientifically explained," this volume supplies the
key to the mystery of what awaits all after physical
death.
