The Other Side: My Experiences with Psychic Phenomena Dell, 1969. 1st Printing. Mass Market Paperback. Good. 1st printing, good copy with some tone, rubbing & edge wear to wraps, blue page ridges rubbed & page edges toned, light spine creasing, text unmarked, binding tight. 1969 Mass Market Paperback. 336 pp. "James Albert Pike (February 14, 1913 - September 1969) was an American Episcopal bishop, prolific writer, and one of the first mainline religious figures to appear regularly on television. His outspoken views on many theological and social issues made him one of the most controversial public figures of his time. He was an early proponent of ordination of women, racial desegregation, and the acceptance of LBGT people within mainline churches. Pike was the fifth Bishop of California..In 1966, Pike's son Jim took his life in a New York city hotel room following a period of recreational drug use. Shortly after his son's death Pike began to experience poltergeist phenomena. Books seemed to vanish and reappear, and safety pins were found open and placed to indicate the hour of 8:19, the approximate hour of his son's death. Half of the clothes in a closet were found disarranged and heaped up while the remainder were still in perfect order. Pike led a public (and for the church, embarrassing) pursuit of various spiritualist and clairvoyant methods of contacting his deceased son in order to reconcile. In September 1967, Pike participated in a televised séance with his dead son through the medium, Arthur Ford, who served at the time as a Disciples of Christ minister. Pike detailed these experiences in his book The Other Side..In 1969 Pike and his new wife drove into the Israeli desert. They were unprepared for the journey, and when their car broke down and became stuck, they separated in order to search for help. Accounts differ and an exact determination is impossible, though it is likely that Pike either fell into a wadi/oasis/creek bed to his death or else climbed in and subsequently died of exposure and thirst sometime between September 2 and 9. His body was recovered and buried (following his wishes and those of his family) in the Protestant cemetery in Jaffa, Israel." - Wikipedia.

No Thanks New York, NY: Liveright, 1978. First Printing. Hardcover. ISBN: 0871406314. Tall thin hardback, red cloth binding with gilt lettering on spine, "EEC" in black on front cover. Book is ex-library, with faint library stamp on top page block edge, and with residue from removal of cardholder and due-date slip on the back of the front free endpaper and the page following it. Binding is a bit faded at its spine and has scuffs and smudges on its covers; top page block edge is spotted with a little light foxing. Binding is square and tight; text pages are unmarked. ; Half-title page lists fourteen major publishers after "No Thanks," the names arranged in the shape of a funeral urn--apparently all of them rejected the book before it was published privately in 1935. In his introduction to this 1978 republication of the book, Richard S. Kennedy discusses the reasons for the trouble Cummings had finding a publisher for the book. There follows a recreation of the original typed manuscript of the book, the poems of which are full of typographical experiments, many of which would not translate into linotype--according to editor Kennedy's afterword, this is "the first complete version of the poet's final manuscript to be published in its original order." Good reading copy, not obviously ex-library when viewed from the outside. ; THE Cummings Typescript Editions; Ex-Library; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall. Good .
