This autobiographical book details the development over 40 years of England's most well-known present day physical medium,Stewart Alexander. A very private man, he has devoted his life to the work of helping those who have been bereaved by helping them make physical contact with those loved ones who have passed over. Not content with his own mediumship he has, over many years, looked into the mediumship of past well-known mediums who have been accused of fraudulent acts despite a mountain of genuine evidence for their mediumship and has his observation in these pages. A very readable book.
There are far fewer physical mediums than mental mediums so this book is a welcome addition to the field, with the added benefit that it was written by a reputable physical medium. The book is in two parts. The first part mainly focuses on the author's development as a medium and on the more dramatic phenomena that occurred during sittings. The second part is mainly devoted to fraudulent mediums and how they were detected.
The extraordinary nature of the phenomena make the repetition of them understandable and forgiveable. Overall I found it to be a clear record of fascinating phenomena. I would have been interested to hear more of the author's ideas of their implications.
Stewart Alexander’s book share ‘shis journey in speaking and ‘seeing’ the ‘other side.’ I am truly grateful to Stewart for confirming my beliefs that this life is not the end, but only a beginning! A great read that offers examples of mediums and their seance room activities for the last 150 years. Incredible events that are often hard to believe, but are confirmed time after time.
This was a fascinating and deeply personal account of a life spent bridging two worlds. The author takes us behind the veil of physical mediumship with honesty, humility, and wonder. For believer and skeptics alike, Stewart Alexander's memoir offers a rare glimpse into experiences that challenge the boundaries between life and afterlife.
