In 1896 A. Farnese was given a glimpse into the after life when a spirit contacted him and told him to write down this story. I do not claim to be the author of this book, since I have only acted the part of an amanuensis and endeavored to write down as truthfully and as carefully as I could, the words given to me by the Spirit Author himself, who is one of several spirits who have desired me to write down for them their experiences in the spirit world. I have had to write the words as fast as my pen could travel over the paper, and many of the experiences described and opinions advanced are quite contrary to what I myself believed to be in accordance with the conditions of life in the world of spirits. The Spirit Author Franchezzo I have frequently seen materialized, and he has been recognized on these occasions by friends who knew him in earth life. Having given the narrative to the public as I received it from the Spirit Author, I must leave with him all responsibility for the opinions expressed and the scenes described. -A. Farnese

A Wanderer in the Spirit Lands consists of a transcription of a soul's journey following death, and has been lauded as one of the finest depictions of this otherworldly journey. Transcending traditions and human experiences over the millennia, this text attempts to advise the reader on what happens to the soul after death. The narrator, having died, explains what occurs after the moment of death, and how the soul transcends physical reality to arrive in a transitory plane of existence. There are several such realms of matter and energy; some are blissful and heavenly, while others are places of confusion, darkness or even purgatory. The conclusion of the soul's journey is to be reborn within a new body for a new life. The author, in relaying his experiences, concludes by saying his account is factual and relayed from a person who by sheer chance was able to recall much of his soul's traversal through realms beyond our own.
