Death and Its Mystery

by Camille Flammarion

Published 6 January 2010
The celebrated 19th-century French astronomer ponders the existence of the soul and its fate after death in this classic book on life's greatest mystery.

Written across half a century, Camille Flammarion seeks answers to the questions: Is not spirit superior to matter? What is our true nature? What is our future destiny? Are we merely ephemeral flames shining an instant to be forever extinguished? Flammarion has undertaken laborious research primarily in order to answer the questions of those lost in grief, whose letters to him are included.

Death and Its Mystery is part of The Paranormal, a new ebook series from F&W Media International Limited that resurrects rare titles, classic publications and out-of-print texts, as well as publishes new supernatural and otherworldly ebooks for the digital age. The series includes a range of paranormal subjects from angels, fairies and UFOs to near-death experiences, vampires, ghosts and witchcraft.
