Overview
Talking to the Dead follows the remarkable story of Kate and Maggie Fox, who were catapulted to fame after word spread that they communicated with spirits. Within a few years, tens of thousands of Americans were flocking to séances. An international movement developed. Yet 40 years after those first knocks, the sisters shocked the country by denying that they had ever contacted spirits. Shortly after, in another stunning reversal, the sisters changed their story again and reaffirmed their belief in the spirit world. Weisberg traces not only the lives of Kate and Maggie and their family, but also the social, religious, economic, and political forces that helped shape the movement. A vivid overview of an exciting and tumultuous time in U.S. history, this is a tale of ghostly raps and apparitions, spirits and conjurors, skeptics and converts--a book full of memorable real-life characters and dramatic surprises.
