The Girls Who Talked to Ghosts: The Story of Katie and Margaretta FoxEdmonds, I.G. | |
This is a well-researched and neutral account of the Fox sisters who initiated Spiritualism in America. Although emphasis is placed on their early years, the later details of their lives are sketched as well, especially the period of Margaretta's confession. Edmonds, who has written over 30 books for young people, tries to present the arguments on both sides of the question of whether or not the "Rochester rappings" were genuine or fraudulent. | |
