The spiritual movement
in the early part of the twentieth century had few proponents greater
than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle--a medical doctor, soldier, intellect,
and world-renowned author of the Sherlock Holmes series. In 1918,
Doyle published The New Revelation--a firsthand account
of his personal investigation into the world of Spiritualism, which
embraced areas that we refer to today as ESP, New Age philosophy,
metaphysics, and psychic experiences. While some may view this work
as a historical footnote, the answers to Sir Arthur's basic
questions about life and death are as relevant today as they were
then.
An original Introduction
to the book provides an insightful look at Doyle's personal life,
and his friendship with magician Harry Houdini is brilliantly captured
in the book's original Afterword.
Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle is the world famous creator and author
of the Sherlock Holmes stories. Having obtained a medical degree
in 1881, Doyle practiced medicine for the next twenty years. Intertwined
with his practice was his career as a writer--gaining him fame and
fortune--and as an investigator of social injustice. In 1916, Sir
Arthur Conan Doyle became intrigued with the psychic phenomena being
explored in the spiritual movement of that time. For the remainder
of his life, Doyle was a devout spiritualist, traveling throughout
the world and lecturing to thousands of people on the topic.
