Weird Science, Religion, Poetry, Etc. from Garrett Scott, Bookseller
A grown up Jessie Heckman (we believe) from the Oregon (Illinois) Library.
Some may believe Hell lies in the center of the Earth, but not William F. Lyon. With help from the spirit medium M.L. Sherman, he wrote The Hollow Globe; or, The World's Agitator and Reconciler, first published in 1871 (offered is an 1875 second edition). Rather than Hell, Lyon believed there was a beautiful and highly developed world some 30 or 40 miles below the Earth's surface. It could be reached only through a spiral entrance beneath the Polar Sea. Lyon believed that this underworld was the next logical outlet for America's manifest destiny. Item 118. $100.
