註釋"Maria B. Hayden was the first American medium to introduce the religion of Spiritualism to the U.K. in 1852-53. Through her séances in England and America, Maria's spirit communciation convinced many of the elite and upper classes, as well as scientists and clergy, that there is life after death. In a day when women were deferential to men, Maria forged ahead despite her critics, managing successful careers as a spirit medium, a healing medium, a clairvoyant physician, a psychometrist and a medical doctor... In this definitive biography... Carmack masterfully weaves together previously uncovered archival, historical and family documents with the social history of the Spiritualst movement to tell Maria's life story."--Back cover.
