Medium Rare

Extraordinary biography of one of the UK's most famous mediums, Ena Twigg. Describes her psychic life, from childhood through to being a professional medium, acting as a channel between this life and the next. Veteran psychic investigator Roy Stemman reveals her to be a reluctant medium, to whom bishops, novelists and other celebrities turned in their search for proof of life after death. They include the Bishop of Southwark, Mervyn Stockwood (who wrote the book's Preface), James Pike, the "heretical" American Episcopalian bishop, Rosamund Lehmann, famous English novelist, and Donald Campbell, world record speed holder at the time, who received messages from his dead father – whose racing ambitions he emulated – through Ena Twigg. "Medium Rare" also contains the testimonies of ordinary people who received equally remarkable evidence that their loved ones had survived death, and discusses the enormous spiritual implications of that evidence.
