Letters from the Other Side

Publisher: Upper Access, Inc.

Blind since childhood, Mary Blount White was limited in what she could write.

Between 1913 and 1917 she received scores of letters from Harry and Helen, describing life after death. Their straight talk about the need for peace, tolerance of others, individual responsibility, and existence on other planes has impressed many and is still relevant today.This was one of the first books we published, and we've kept it in print because new people keep discovering it and thanking us for making it available.
