Men Who Wouldn't Stay Dead. Ida Clyde Clarke. New York: Richard R. Smith, 1945.
A collection of twenty-eight accounts of ghosts, hauntings, apparitions, and other supernatural phenomena compiled by journalist and psychical researcher Ida Clyde Clarke. Drawing upon historical records and firsthand reports, Clarke presents a series of well-known cases that helped shape twentieth-century interest in the paranormal, spiritualism, and psychical research.
Bound in the publisher's blue cloth and retaining the original illustrated dust jacket, featuring striking Art Deco-style typography and cover artwork. The dust jacket shows a large chip to the lower front panel, together with edge wear and rubbing consistent with age, yet remains bright and visually appealing. The book itself is clean and sound, with light shelf wear.
An attractive 1945 edition of a classic work on the supernatural, retaining its original dust jacket and well suited to collectors of ghost literature, spiritualism, psychical research, and occult history.
