Imagine, if you will, living in a post-Victorian world being harassed and vandalized by groups of evil, occult hypnotists that can put you into an insane asylum, make you think your house is haunted, or even kill you! Add the Jesuits and the Freemasons into the mix and the result is a delightful, rambling, sometimes incoherent, paranoid descent into serious, pseudo-scientific lunacy. Here are some delightful quotes
"Mrs. Anna Kingsford appears to have been often hypnotised by some unknown rascal, but her gentle admirable character seems to have suffered but little, though her life was possibly shortened."
"In modern times some poor people, bothered by hypnotists, have been sent to lunatic asylums and have fallen victims of the greed, cruelty, and neglect that so often prevail there."
"... and people should be protected against a most dangerous and cowardly form of crime--criminal hypnotism."
However, I will say in the Honorable John Harris' defense that the fear of mesmerists was quite real during this time and found expression in that time period's entertainment such as The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, 1919, and Svengali,1931.
Nonetheless, for those of us who haunt old bookstores looking in dusty, dark corners for a moth-eaten copy of the Necronomicon, Unaussprechlichen Kulten, or even a bad translation of Cultes des Goules, this is a great find.
It was a good book,but don't wast your time getting this book.
