- Additional information
- "My grandfathers (independently) found HEAVEN AND HELL by Emanuel Swedenborg (his most popular book) in libraries on either coast of Canada, read it, and then joined the religion based on The Writings of Swedenborg.
The religion is called New Church or Swedenborgian. The New Church was founded in England 15 years after Swedenborg died.
Because two people thought enough to place HEAVEN AND HELL in their local libraries, is why I release Swedenborgian books into the wild through BookCrossing.com.
I, too, want to share the - good news fresh from heaven - as John Chapman (aka Johnny Appleseed) called the Writings of Swedenborg. He handed out copies of HEAVEN AND HELL to the early settlers on his walking travels planting apple trees. Actually, he would divide HEAVEN AND HELL by chapters and loan the chapters out to settlers.
Johnny Appleseed was the original bookcrosser lending out books by Swedenborg about life after death.
Ask me anything.
