Patience Worth: A Psychic Mystery is a book written by Casper S. Yost that explores the life and work of the famous American psychic, Pearl Lenore Curran, who claimed to channel the spirit of a 17th-century Englishwoman named Patience Worth. The book delves into the fascinating story of how Patience Worth communicated through Curran and produced a large body of literature that included poetry, plays, and novels. Yost investigates the authenticity of Curran's psychic abilities and examines the debates and controversies surrounding her work. The book also provides insights into the social and cultural context of the early 20th century, when spiritualism and psychic phenomena were widely discussed and debated. Overall, Patience Worth: A Psychic Mystery is a compelling and insightful exploration of one of the most intriguing cases of psychic communication in modern history.1916. The author, a newspaper man, explains that: The mystery of Patience Worth is one which every reader may endeavor to solve for himself. The sole purpose of this narrative is to give the visible truth, the physical evidence, so to speak, the things that can be seen and that are therefore susceptible of proof by ocular demonstration. In this category are the instruments of communication and the communications themselves, which are described, explained and, in some cases, interpreted, where an effort at interpretation seems to be desirable.
