Spirit Works, Real But Not Miraculous is a lecture given by Allen Putnam at the City Hall in Roxbury, Massachusetts in 1853. The book discusses the phenomenon of spiritualism, which was popular in the mid-19th century and involved the belief in communication with the dead. Putnam argues that while spiritualism is real and not fraudulent, it is not miraculous and can be explained through natural means. He provides examples of spiritualist experiences and analyzes them from a scientific perspective, concluding that they are the result of psychological and physical processes rather than supernatural intervention. The book offers a unique perspective on the spiritualist movement and provides insight into the scientific thinking of the time.Also Contains: Mesmerism, Spiritualism, Witchcraft And Miracle.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
