Several b/w illustrations. From the publisher: "Historians of modern British culture have long assumed that under pressure from secular forces, interest in spiritualism had faded by the end of the Great War. Hazelgrove challenges this assumption and shows how spiritualism grew between the wars and became part of the fabric of popular culture. Provides a fascinating and lively insight into an alternative culture that flourished--and continues to flourish--alongside more conventional outlets for spiritual beliefs and needs."
