Publisher's Synopsis
""A Subaltern in Spirit Land"" is the second installment in J.S.M. Ward's ""Gone West"" series. The book follows the journey of a young British army officer who died in World War I and finds himself in the afterlife. He discovers that there is a Spirit Land beyond death, where he meets other souls who have passed away. The book describes his experiences in this new world, as he learns about the laws that govern it and the different levels of existence within it. The story also explores the concept of reincarnation and the idea that our souls continue to evolve and grow after death. Through his interactions with other spirits, the protagonist gains a deeper understanding of the nature of life and death, and the purpose of our existence. This book is a fascinating exploration of the afterlife and a thought-provoking reflection on the meaning of life.1916. Partial Contents: Part I.
