How the World Came to an End in 1881. Published anonymously (Edward Maitland). Field & Tuer, London, 1884. 83 pp.

 

            Information: This book was today a rare one, quite difficult to find, until presented to the Internet public in the Anna Kingsford Site. As far as we can see, its message is still of the greatest importance to the well being of the world. May it be a sign of the times, a sign of the New Advent and New Era it is announcing.

            Thanks are due to Mr. Brian McAllister, of England, for generously making the photocopy of this rare material and sending it to us.

            Below we have photos of its original cover, its main title pages, plus a photo of a very interesting dedicatory in the writer’s own hand writing (Edward Maitland), and the complete Html text of the book:
