Description

"In this definitive biography Sidney Kirkpatrick offers a portrait of Edgar Cayce with an entirely new perspective on his life and legacy. The only author to have been granted unrestricted access to all of Cayce's letters and papers, Kirkpatrick has uncovered fascinating details about his work as a psychic, and is the first to crack the code of Cayce's trance readings to show how they were used by such prominent individuals as George Gershwin, Nelson Rockefeller, and Marilyn Monroe. Edgar Cayce: An American Prophet is the first authoritative account of the life of this legendary figure - a humble man with a radiant gift, whose words and deeds continue to inspire legions of followers."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence
