Apostle of Peace, Vol. 2
A rich tapestry of early 20th-century headlines, this volume gathers a curated selection of press articles documenting ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s final decade—from his triumphant European tour of 1912 through to his poignant return and passing in November 1921. Readers are transported to bustling newsrooms where interviews, press conferences and portrait sittings captured global fascination with his message of peace and unity.
Alongside accounts of his dialogues with suffragist organisations, civil-rights pioneers, Esperantists and members of Theosophical and spiritualist societies, the narrative reveals how newspapers championed his progressive ideals. Each article highlights the breadth of his engagement, from podiums in London and New York to small-town gatherings, evidencing an era when print media shaped public conscience.
Compiled over ten years by Amín Egea, this second volume of “Apostle of Peace” underscores the astonishing reach of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s influence. With a combined circulation exceeding 22 million, these reports demonstrate that his life and teachings resonated...Show More
