Publisher Description: As a young man, Edward Granville Browne, who was to become an eminent orientalist and Professor of Arabic at Cambridge University, encountered this rising Faith and was impelled to investigate its history and doctrine. Unfortunately, through various causes which Mr Balyuzi explores, Professor Browne did not rightly judge all that he observed. Mr Balyuzi confronts this problem directly and, with scholarship and first-hand knowledge, addresses himself to each of Browne's writings on the subject. The result is a book of enduring importance and interest, which is essential to all who seek authentic sources for the study of the Bah ' Faith. |
