Searching for Raymond: Anglicanism, Spiritualism, and Bereavement between the Two World Wars

Overview

This text examines the relationship between the Anglican Church and Spiritualism following World War I. A study of the ""claims of Spiritualism in relation to the Christian faith"" carried out after World War I, but only made public in 1979, was found to be favourable to Spiritualism. The book explores the rise in the popularity of Spiritualism after the war as Anglican's failed to find solace in the teachings of their own faith; and it explores the connection of religious faith and bereavement between the two World Wars.
