My Life In Two Worlds
Gladys Osborne Leonard was a British trance medium, renowned for her work with the Society for Psychical Research. Leonard was born in Lytham on May 28th, 1882. She claimed to have experienced her first 'visitation' by spirits when she was a child and she professed that the spirits would show her landscapes which she would refer to as the 'Happy Valley'. She was originally trained as a singer but childhood illness in 1906 prevented her from continuing. Her interest in spiritualism developed during an illness when a Spiritualist nurse in the hospital invited her to take part in her first table seance. This is a fantastic hardcover book from the Collector's Library of the Unknown that is in very fine, previously loved condition and perfect for the Halloween season!
