Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the life and work of Luther Colby, a pioneer of modern Spiritualism and founder of the Banner of Light, the world's longest-running Spiritualist periodical. Born into a conservative New England family in 1814, Colby rejected the narrow dogmas of his time, embracing a belief in the continuity of consciousness beyond the grave. His involvement with Spiritualism began in 1856, and he became convinced of the reality of spirit communication and the power of mediums. In 1857, he co-founded the Banner of Light, which has served as a vital platform for the dissemination of Spiritualist ideas and news for over 160 years. Colby's contributions to the movement were manifold: he defended Spiritualism against attacks from skeptics and the clergy, helped establish public circles for spirit communication, and used the Banner to promote charitable causes. Through his tireless efforts, he played a pivotal role in shaping the beliefs and practices of modern Spiritualism, demonstrating the power of the human spirit to transcend the limitations of the physical world.
