In 1952 Morey Bernstein wrote this book about Ruth Simmons concerning a past life that she recalled under hypnosis.
The link to the book is below.
Many people believed this to be a hoax or at best wishful thinking and no evidence of Bride Murphy was ever recovered. However, this was 1800's Ireland and records were poor at best.
That said the author never writes or publicly stated that he believed in reincarnation. He was simply reporting the story in that he believed it interesting.

She lived in Cork, Ireland and claimed to have contact with herself in several previous lives. Under hypnosis she would talk as the other personas might have talked. It was interesting, but I think it was proven to be a fraud.

Yes. An example of reincarnation if the book is to be believed. If true, its a convincing case for it.

It' what some American woman claimed was her name in a former life. You know, through that ol' chestnut known as past life regression.

A hoax for the most part.
