Hi folks,

I'm trying to find an online source for a text by now obscure American Nazi William Dudley Pelley. The text is "Seven Minutes in Eternity". It's an account of Pelley's 'near death experience' and the initiation of the 'spiritual' part of his 'journey'.

There are versions available for purchase but I had hoped that it might have entered the public domain and might be accessible somewhere.

I'm also looking for his "Star Guests" which is difficult to find.

Thanks for any help. ;)

Not difficult, just expensive...https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias=stripbooks&field-keywords=William+Pelley

Note: Public Domain does not equal somebody ran it up online for folks to grab it free. It generally means that small numbers of copies will come out for prices less than legitimate editions and be priced just a bit less than the legitimate editions.

Also, I have not needed to know this for some time, but I am pretty sure his stuff would still be under copyright. And based on Amazon prices that is pretty likely.

It just hit me that I wrote the same point out again after writing it initially.

Some of them are, yes. There are more than the one noted. I agree on that one.

Thanks for noting that on price - looked up a book I already have and found it for way less (and it is not cheap normally - I think I know why I am getting it from a trustworthy site - I believe they have no idea what it goes for) than the last copy I got - a great deal at just over $800.00. This one is being sold by a University for 60.00!!!!! May be in better condition than mine. Interesting note: limited to IIRC 1100 copies.

It does seem reasonably priced.

Have you come across many copies of his Star Guests? Seems quite rare.

Amazon (seriously check the site!!!) has two copies one around $150.00 and the other around $85.00. I stopped after the 9th or 10th page of just various "Soulscripts" .

Try searching for PDF versions.
Probably freely available somewhere.

William Dudley Pelley's books are not under copyright, they are in public domain, many of them even online.

Firstly anything published before 1923 is out of copyright in the United States by default. Some of Pelley's books are older than 1923.

Secondly any book published in the United States between 1923 and 1963 is likely to be in public domain if the copyright was never renewed.

Dudley self-published many of his books (he died in 1965), he held a lot of fascist ideas and no mainstream publishing company would print his work, the copyright on his books was never renewed. Many publishing companies have simply reprinted his books. Take care.

The entire book is online for free. I also have many of his other books. If you want any of them private message me.
