Book Overview

""Patience Worth: A Psychic Mystery"" is a book written by Casper S. Yost that explores the mysterious case of Pearl Curran, a woman who claimed to channel the spirit of a 17th-century Englishwoman named Patience Worth. The book delves into the history of Pearl Curran's life and her experiences with psychic phenomena, as well as the literary output that she produced while under the influence of the Patience Worth persona. Yost examines the evidence of the case and provides his own analysis of the authenticity of the Patience Worth phenomenon, ultimately leaving it up to the reader to decide whether or not they believe in the reality of the channeling. This book is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between spirituality, psychology, and the paranormal, and is sure to captivate anyone with an interest in the mysteries of the human mind.1916. The author, a newspaper man, explains that: The mystery of Patience Worth is one which every reader may endeavor to solve for himself. The sole purpose of this narrative is to give the visible truth, the physical evidence, so to speak, the things that can be seen and that are therefore susceptible of proof by ocular demonstration. In this category are the instruments of communication and the communications themselves, which are described, explained and, in some cases, interpreted, where an effort at interpretation seems to be desirable.
