First published in 1888, this biography relates the remarkable life
of Scottish-born medium Daniel Dunglas Home (1833 1886). Descended
from a long line of reputed seers, Home was easily the most well
known and sought-after of the spiritualists of his day. Famous for
his ability to levitate and communicate with the deceased, Home
carved out an illustrious career for himself, conducting s ances
for Napoleon III, Elizabeth Barrett Browning (whose husband Robert
lampooned Home as 'Mr Sludge the Medium'), Tolstoy, and Queen
Sophia of the Netherlands among others. Written by Home's second
wife, Julie de Gloumeline, this book seeks to set the celebrated
medium apart from his contemporaries by outlining the truth and
purpose behind Home's supernatural exploits. D. D. Home provides a
fascinating and personal insight into an enigmatic figure who, in
the twenty-five years he worked as a medium, was never exposed as a
fraud.
