Death and the after-life

Eight evening lectures on the summer-land.

by Andrew Jackson Davis

  • First published:
  • 19th century
  • Language: English

I find myself somewhat embarrassed in speaking on a subject which, though it is not a stranger to human hopes and aspirations, is nevertheless quite foreign to most people's habits of thinking, opposed to their educational bias, and which conflicts with popular methods of reasoning on the resurrection.
