British writer Arthur Conan Doyle was much more than the famous creator of the beloved fictional detective Sherlock Holmes.

Produktbeschreibung
British writer Arthur Conan Doyle was much more than the famous creator of the beloved fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. He was also a Christian spiritualist with a profound belief in immortality and a keen knowledge of ancient mysticism. In his enduring nonfiction work The New Revelation he provides proof for life after death and communication with the dead, a message that offers hope and consolation to all those who have lost loved ones, or who want to know what happens after so-called "death." In this attractive Sea Raven Press reprint of the classic 1918 book, Conan Doyle discusses his journey from skeptic to believer, citing scientific experiments and studies, as well as his own personal experiences, all adding up to irrefutable evidence that human consciousness survives the death of the physical body. After years of communicating with the "dead," Conan Doyle sifts through his findings, concluding that we live on for eternity in a luminous pain-free world of beautiful light, complete freedom, and unconditional love, surrounded by family members, friends, and kindred spirits. Edited by award-winning historian and Bible authority Lochlainn Seabrook - currently the author and editor of nearly 100 books - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The New Revelation includes four chapters, supplementary documents, a preface by the author, and an introduction by the editor. As with all our reprints, not one word has been added to or subtracted from the original text. This book is available in paperback and hardcover.

Autorenporträt
Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle KStJ DL (22 May 1859 - 7 July 1930) was a British writer best known for his detective fiction featuring the character Sherlock Holmes. Originally a physician, in 1887 he published A Study in Scarlet, the first of four novels and more than fifty short stories about Holmes and Dr. Watson. The Sherlock Holmes stories are generally considered milestones in the field of crime fiction. Doyle was a prolific writer; his non-Sherlockian works include fantasy and science fiction stories about Professor Challenger and humorous stories about the Napoleonic soldier Brigadier Gerard, as well as plays, romances, poetry, non-fiction and historical novels. One of Doyle's early short stories, "J. Habakuk Jephson's Statement", helped to popularise the mystery of the Mary Celeste. Doyle is often referred to as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle or simply Conan Doyle (implying that "Conan" is part of a compound surname as opposed to his given middle name). His baptism entry in the register of St Mary's Cathedral, Edinburgh, gives "Arthur Ignatius Conan" as his given names and "Doyle" as his surname. It also names Michael Conan as his godfather.[1] The cataloguers of the British Libraryand the Library of Congress treat "Doyle" alone as his surname. Steven Doyle, editor of The Baker Street Journal, wrote, "Conan was Arthur's middle name. Shortly after he graduated from high school he began using Conan as a sort of surname. But technically his last name is simply 'Doyle'."[3] When knighted, he was gazetted as Doyle, not under the compound Conan Doyle Doyle was born on 22 May 1859 at 11 Picardy Place, Edinburgh, Scotland. His father, Charles Altamont Doyle, was born in England, of Irish Catholic descent, and his mother, Mary (née Foley), was Irish Catholic. His parents married in 1855.[7] In 1864 the family dispersed because of Charles's growing alcoholism, and the children were temporarily housed across Edinburgh. In 1867, the family came together again and lived in squalid tenement flats at 3 Sciennes Place.[8] Doyle's father died in 1893, in the Crichton Royal, Dumfries, after many years of psychiatric illness.
