From the Publisher
Charles William Daniel (1871-1955) was a maverick free-thinker whose tiny publishing house had august links with many of the most influential thinkers and movements of the 20th century. To wit, copies of Daniel's books could be found in the library at Ghandi's ashram. This spirit lived on after his death, and the company maintained its niche by publishing definitive texts on a variety of spiritual and esoteric subjects. Many of these titles, notably those on Aromatherapy and Bach Flower remedies, have become standard works on the subject. When the C.W. Daniel list went looking for a new home, the Vermilion and Rider imprints were the natural place for this wonderful collection of authors.

About the Author
Born in the north of England, the author of The Boy Who Saw True chose to remain anonymous and would only allow his diary to appear several years after his death, with the stipulation that the original spellings were to remain and some of the names be changed. His editor Cyril Scott enjoyed a two-fold career as a musical composer and a writer on the occult and other related matters.

Customer Reviews

For anyone interested in auras, spirits, and spirituality.
I was sorry when the book ended. This is the diary of a young boy born in victorian England with the ability to see and hear spirits. His family life in the victorian era is interesting to say the least, while the insights provided by conversations with spirits, teachers, and people who have "passed over" are fascinating and thought provoking. This is a book I plan to give to my friends who are following a spiritual path. It is easy to read and humorous as well. Most of the origional mispellings (from the diary) remain intact in this published edition, delightfully reminding us of the youthful innocence of the author.

Purest story of natural clairvoyance ever written
I am a clairvoyant myself and teach intuition development
with the ARE and in my own course, the Lightworker Intensive.
I have this as one of the top books of recommended reading
for students.
Totally free of ego, this book tells the amazing and charming
story of a young boy's natural developing abilities, how he
felt about them, learned about them, wondered about them,
and learned to use and manage them.
Unforgettable. Definitely one of the best! I can't
think of any book comparable that teaches so much, so
innocently and beautifully.

Full of Wonderful Insights Through the Mouth of a Child
I, like many other reviewers, was unable to put this book down once I started it. I loved reading about the topics of clairvoyance and clairaudiance as it was experienced by a child.

This book is basically the publishing of a childhood journal. It includes the psychic experiences this child had, as well as the way he was treated when speaking about them. It also includes some everyday childhood "stuff", but even that was quite interesting.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in psychic development in particular, or metaphysics in general. It's a highly entertaining read.
