Join me in reading and discussing Spiritualism's greatest stories, most controversial heroes and deepest questions. The class’ book list criss-crosses the entire 170+ year history of the movement and includes everything from scholarly works to channeled spirit communication. Each month, we'll focus on a key category. You can choose to read the feature book (in bold) or one of the other options listed to expand the conversation (or if you've already read our pick!).

APRIL: BIOGRAPHIES

While much of Spiritualist history has written Victoria Woodhull out of the official pages, she has a fascinating rags-to-riches story with the kind of wild twists one might expect these days and are positively jaw-dropping for her time.
