This video was greatly informed by the book "The Apparitionists: A Tale of Phantoms, Fraud, Photography, and the Man Who Captured Lincoln’s Ghost" by Peter Manseau. Thank you Mr. Manseau, for your insightful, exhaustive research as well as your engaging storytelling.
Another invaluable resource was the book “The Strange Case of William Mumler, Spirit Photographer” by Louis Kaplan. Thank you Mr. Kaplan, for so artfully gathering such a wealth of Mumler documentation.
