First published in 1969, this title explores the origins of
Spiritualism as a religion movement. The first part is a history of
Spiritualism, with a focus on its origins within America and the
development of the organisation within itself. Next, Nelson
considers the rise of Spiritualism in Britain, using evidence taken
from contemporary journals, other publications and interviews.
Finally, the Spiritualist movement is analysed in terms of
sociological theory, looking at the Church and the definition of
the Cult, as well as concepts of authority and leadership. This is
a fascinating work, which will be of great interest to students
researching the origins and development of the movement of
Spiritualism and its relationship with society.
