The first biography of Sir George Trevelyan, felt by many to be the grandfather of the movement for spiritual regeneration in Britain. Sir George Trevelyan espoused alternative values long before the phrase became as popular as it is today. After hearing a lecture by a pupil of Rudolf Steiner, Trevelyan declared The agnosticism of thirty-six years faded like morning mist. The spiritual worldview was clear to me in its glory and wonder. During his lifetime he explored beliefs in angels, the calming effects of crystals and the power of ley lines, alongside organic farming and communal living. In 1971 he set up the Wrekin Trust to promote spiritual education and knowledge, and in 1982 he was awarded the Right Livelihood Award (thealternative Nobel Prize) for his contribution towards healing the planet. He inspired and encouraged the emerging synthesis between science and spirituality, putting his faith for the future of society in the transforming power of spiritual awakening. He taught extensively, inspiring communities, universities and spiritual groups worldwide. He died in 1996 at the age of ninety.
