Description:

Published by J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1860. First American edition. Hardcover. Small 8vo. 528pp. Blind stamped brown cloth w/ gilt titling to spine, with narrative illustrations, appendix and index. A work by Robert Dale Owen (1801-1875), an American who served in both the Indiana legislature and Congress. Owen went on to become Charge d'Affaires in Naples, where he met the medium D. D. Home, who fired his interest in Spiritualism. During his subsequent researches Owen became convinced that "what by many have been regarded as new and unexampled phenomena are but modern phases of what has ever existed." In 'Footfalls on the Boundary of Another World,' he sought to set out, in methodical fashion, historical and well attested examples of psychic phenomena, with a particular emphasis on "spontaneous phenomena, rather than to those that are evoked," as he felt that the chance of being "misled by expectant attention" was greatly reduced.
