Biography:
Even today, Daniel Dunglas Home is sometimes characterized as a genuine medium
because he was never caught cheating - but this seems to be a consequence of the
fact that he never performed to large public audience and never subjected his abilities
to testing by skeptics and scientists. Instead, he always worked to retain complete
control over the conditions in which he performed and focused on performing
seances with credulous hosts.
