Edward Maitland

Edward Maitland was born in 1824 and died in 1897. He is best known for his collaboration with Dr. Anna Kingsford on their 1882 book, The Perfect Way, or the Finding of Christ.

According to the biographical sketch by Margaret Conger, Maitland was "educated at Caius College, Cambridge, but did not take orders. In 1857 he took up an advanced humanitarian attitude and also claimed to have developed a new sense by which he was able to discern the spiritual condition of people."[1]
