MRS. EDDY: THE BIOGRAPHY OF A VIRGINAL MIND. EDWIN F. DAKIN.
FEBRUARY 1930 Harold E. B. Speight

Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1929.

A remarkable story of a unique woman humbly bom but deified in her old age; ailing in mind and body but by her teaching releasing thousands from mental suffering; alternating throughout life between a world of imagination and the real world, learning quite late in life how to impress her will upon others. Long, somewhat repetitious, but based upon well-documented data. Throws light upon the deep-seated desire for someone to venerate, and upon the dangers in superficial education. A volume unpopular with Christian Scientists and inevitably so.
