There Is a River by Thomas Sugrue is the authorised biography of Edgar Cayce (1877–1945) — one of the most extraordinary psychics and healers of the 20th century.
Cayce, often called “The Sleeping Prophet,” gave thousands of psychic readings while in a self-induced trance, covering topics such as health, reincarnation, dreams, spiritual growth, and life after death.
Sugrue’s account traces Cayce’s humble beginnings in Kentucky, the discovery of his abilities, his healing work, and the formation of the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), which continues his legacy today.
Written with both journalistic detail and spiritual sensitivity, There Is a River is a timeless biography that captures Cayce’s humanity, faith, and far-reaching influence on spiritual healing and consciousness studies.
 
Thomas Sugrue (1907–1953) was a journalist, novelist, and close friend of Edgar Cayce. As the only writer to work with Cayce personally over many years, he presents a vivid and sympathetic portrait based on first-hand experience.
