J. Francis Hitching is a dowser & author whose books often focus on the paranormal. According to the biography in his The World Atlas of Mysteries, he was born in 1933, growing up in Stratford-upon-Avon, where a grandfather, Randle Ayrton, was a noted Shakespearian actor. He studied in Warwick, but in 1950 left, becoming a newspaper reporter, then a magazine journalist, before producing the tv music program Ready Steady Go! While filming a documentary at Carnac in France, the megaliths he saw there inspired him to spend the next four years researching Earth Magic, on the subject of standing stones. According to The World Atlas: "he was impressed by the dowsers he met who seemed instinctively to know why the stones had been erected. Some of their information about psychic matters was so extraordinary that he decided they warranted a full investigation & explanation; hence his next book Pendulum."

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
