'Experimental Investigation of the Spirit Manifestations' is an 1855 work by American chemist Robert Hare. In this volume, Hare deals with the subject of spiritualism, a religious movement based on the belief that spirits of the deceased exist and are able to communicate with living people. He explores in detail the evidence for the existence of spirits, looking at purported methods of communication, historical cases from around the world, intuitive evidence, and more. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in spiritualism and the existence of an afterlife, and it is not to be missed by collectors of related literature.
