An Adventure by Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain

An Adventure, by Charlotte Anne Moberly and Eleanor Jourdain, is a fascinating account of one of the most unusual episodes in early twentieth-century paranormal literature. The book recounts the authors’ visit to the Palace of Versailles, where they believed they experienced a strange series of events that seemed to place them in another time. While walking through the grounds near the Petit Trianon, they encountered unfamiliar people, unusual surroundings, and an atmosphere they later felt resembled eighteenth-century France. After comparing their memories and researching the history of Versailles, Moberly and Jourdain became convinced that they may have experienced what is sometimes described as a time slip or a paranormal glimpse into the past. Blending travel memoir, historical investigation, psychological mystery, and supernatural speculation, An Adventure remains an intriguing work for listeners interested in Versailles, unexplained phenomena, ghost stories, historical mysteries, and early paranormal research.
