Item description from seller

First Edition. 22 cm.; [8], 9-112 pp. Printed at the Condé Nast Press in Greenwich, Connecticut. Bound in original blue woven cloth boards, gilt-stamped. Top edge gilt. Spine is toned with bumped edges. Foxed endpapers. Lacking scarce dust jacket. Condition: Very Good. The final installment in a trilogy of automatic writing (spirit channelling) books published by Otto Torney Simon following the death of his wife, Anne Simon, in 1916.

A fascinating example of automatic writing wherein a woman, who would have been barred from spiritual/psychological leadership, uses her living husband to transcend patriarchal structures. …
