Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the life of a Scottish man with the extraordinary ability to foresee the future and communicate with the deceased, this narrative takes readers from Mr. Duncan Campbell's childhood in Scotland to his adventures as a fortune-teller across Europe. The book also features two of Defoe's essays: "The Dumb Philosopher," which humorously examines non-verbal communication, and "Everybody's Business Is Nobody's Business," a comedic take on social meddling. This work offers an intriguing look at fortune-telling and the supernatural in 18th-century Europe.
