'The Frozen Grail, which Commander Peary carried with him to the North Pole, was originally pubished in the New York Times, on the day when he started for the Arctic.' (-from a terminal note). 126 p. 20 cm. Elsa Barker (1869?1954) was an American novelist, short-story writer and poet. She became known for three books: Letters from a Living Dead Man (1914), War Letters from the Living Dead Man (1915), and Last Letters From the Living Dead Man (1919), that she said were messages from a dead man produced through automatic writing. Barker was born in 1869 in Leicester, Vermont. Her parents both died while Barker was still young. She worked as a shorthand writer, a teacher and wrote for newspapers. Her father had been interested in the occult and Barker shared this interest, becoming a member of the Theosophical Society. She was also initiated into the Rosicrucian Order of Alpha et Omega.
