The Boy Who Saw True by Anonymous
Information: 248 pages, paperback
They say: The Boy who saw true comes into a totally different category and differs materially from all the hundreds of books I have read on Spiritualism and kindred subjects,' writes Cyril Scott, the well-known occultist, in his preface to this unusual book. 'Not one of them has ever displayed the characteristics of this highly diverting human document, with its naive candours, its drolleries, its unconscious humour, its oscillations between the ridiculous and the exalted, and its power to convince, for the very reason that the young diarist never set out with the intention of carrying conviction. Here was a precocious young boy born with clairvoyance who could see auras and spirits, yet failed to realise that other people were not similarly gifted. In consequence he was misunderstood and had to suffer many indignities. Apart from this his diary is of interest in that it reveals the thoughts, emotions and perplexities of a Victorian youngster brought up a little prior to the 'naughty nineties.'
