One of the things about browsing in the Tower of Babel is that the vagaries of computer catalogues throw up stuff you just can't keep your hands off. For example, the other day I was looking up stuff by and about doomed polar explorer and Murray author Sir John Franklin, whose expedition to find the NW Passage disappeared without trace in 1846, and I came accross a book called
"A practical investigation into the Truth of Clairvoyance
containing
Revelations of the fate of Sir John Franklin
and
some enquiries into the mysterious rappings of the present day
by
An Unprejudiced Observer"
Victorians. You've gotta love 'em.
