2014 Reprint of 1930 Edition. Full facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. On April
10, 1912, Stead boarded the S.S. Titanic bound from Southampton to
New York, to take part in a peace congress at Carnegie Hall. On the
morning of April 15 the ship struck an iceberg and Stead, along
with hundreds of others, drowned. At that time his daughter,
Estelle, an actress and also a spiritualist, was on tour with her
own Shakespearean company. Amongst its members was a psychically
gifted man named Pardoe Woodman, who foretold the disaster as they
sat talking after tea. Through Woodman's clairvoyant powers W. T.
Stead was able to communicate the messages contained in "The Blue
Island." Ten years after the Titanic went down, Stead's daughter
Estelle published "The Blue Island: Experiences of a New Arrival
Beyond the Veil," which purported to be a communication with Stead
via a medium, Pardoe Woodman. In the book, Stead described his
death at sea and discussed the nature of the afterlife. The
manuscript was produced using automatic writing.
