Cathryn McIntyre is an independent scholar of the life and work of transcendentalist writer, Henry David Thoreau and of the literary history of 19th century Concord, Massachusetts.  She is also a gifted writer whose book, Honor in Concord: Seeking Spirit in Literary Concord, combines her passion for Concord's literary history with the story of her own spiritual pursuits.

Cathryn has studied astrology for over 20 years, and has investigated such topics as clairvoyance, mediumship, the near death experience, the notion of both past and parallel lives, as well as the alien abduction phenomenon.  She is a natural psychic and clairvoyant who brings this unique ability into her literary studies.  This enables her to relate in ways that few others ever have to the writers of 19th century Concord.  

Cathryn remembers a habit she had in childhood of pulling certain cards out of a deck called "Authors".  Those cards held the images of Concord's famous writers.   Cathryn knew nothing about those writers at that time or of their association in mid-19th century Concord, but it is in those moments that her life path is revealed.  It is first as a spiritualist, someone who understands and fundamentally relates to the elements of spirit; and second, as a passionate enthusiast for the writers of this most historic and profoundly spiritual place called Concord.
