I'm looking for a series on reincarnation I read in the 80's, can you help?

Here's what I can remember, the author was female. One of her past lives concerned Moses. She also remembered in her current life things going back to when she was less than 1 year old.

Please let me know if you can remember her name, or the name of one of her books.

Thank you

Hi Kazren:

Can you give some more guidance on genre and origin, etc.? Was this a Young Adult (YA) book, or ? Was the author British, American, Canadian, French, . . . ? When did you read her book, and if you remember, when was it written or published? Do you remember any other details about the author? Was she a known expert or popular writer in this field, was she known for being a psychic, etc.?

Cordially,
S&S

PS--You might be interested in reading about Dorothy Eady. She doesn't "check all of the boxes" in terms of what you are looking for, and the only reference to Moses I found for her related to her father (who also had that name):

Hi, SeaAndSky, this was not a young adult book. It was written as a serious look back on one of the author's past lives.

Hi Kazren,

I always wanted to read a series of books (starting with "Winged Pharaoh") by Joan Grant that dealt with her prior reincarnations in ancient Egypt and other related matters. She came to mind as a possibility when I read your first post, but I couldn't remember her name. However, with some more searching I found her again. She is an intriguing person and author, and her books were very well thought of in their day:

The seventh book in her series deals with Moses. (This is something I didn't know before searching her out again). So, I am hoping this is the one you are looking for:

PS--Please let me know if this is the one. Also, if you get a chance to re-read it, please let us know what your thoughts and impressions are on the book.
PPS--I'd love to read these books myself!

A follow-up--

There is a good website set up by some of her friends, etc., here:

Joan Grant (1907-89) came to fame in 1937 as the author of Winged Pharaoh, a historical novel set in ancient Egypt. ‘I have been enthralled by the book as by nothing I have read for years’ said London’s Sunday Times and it soon leapt into the best seller lists in countries round the world...

Most of her books appear to be out of print, but her seven "far memory" books are available to purchase as audiobooks on the website here:

A very, very fascinating lady. I think I will have to do some reading (or listening) myself when I get some time.

Hi Baro-san,

I read through "Winged Pharaoh" and am currently reading "Many Lifetimes", with "So Moses was Born" next on my list. These are very good books. The first is a very good read and the second, while not as gripping (as it focuses more on conveying information than story telling), is also proving to be very interesting.

Cordially,
S&S

PS--I am skipping over some in her series of past lives as I wanted to get to the heart of what she had to say about reincarnation as well as Moses.
