Focusing on the intersection of belief and skepticism, this 1921 nonfiction work explores Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's defense of the Cottingley Fairies, photographs claimed to depict fairies taken by two Yorkshire girls in 1917. Despite later admissions of fabrication, the images captivated a public intrigued by spiritualism, with Conan Doyle as a prominent supporter. This text serves as a fascinating artifact of early 20th-century occult fascination and offers insight into the author's later life, contrasting his logical detective persona with his embrace of the supernatural.
