Experience has shown me that there is a lot of uncanny accuracy in what this book teaches - if you study it and can apply it. Much more so than current books on the subject. It is very readable and also provides quite a bit of insight into Victorian and Edwardian spiritualism. The real silver lining is that with a good working knowledge comes surprising opportunities for meeting otherwise unapproachable women at parties. Remain vigilant, however, for spontaneous negative reactions by suspicious and possessive individuals.
good book, difficult to read.

Excellent compendium and curiosities about palmistry, the book is written in old English from the late 1800s, sometimes it's a little hard to follow the line or to understand because it comes with the original orthographic mistakes made by the author in the first edition of the book back in 1895, and the words/letters are tiny. It is a little piece of history! If you are into palmistry you should buy it, if you are not don't bother, you'll find it difficult to read.
Excellent book

This book is a more elaborate work, (compared to the smaller book on Palmistry by the same author). This book has numerous illustrations which are very helpful for deciphering the lines of the hand. I tried reading my hand (after reading the book) and I've been impressed by the accuracy of predictions based on the material given in the book. In short this is an excellent buy if you wish to master the art of palmistry.
