A classic and vivid portrait of 'Abdu'l-Bahá by one of his own disciples, a former Unitarian minister.Portals to Freedom is a personal record which brings the historical figure of 'Abdu'l-Bahá to warm life, and His message close to the heart.

'Here I saw a man who, outwardly, like myself, lived in a world of confusion, yet, beyond the possibility of doubt, lived and worked in that higher and real world . . . And, which is to me a most inspiring and encouraging fact, He took it for granted that you and I . . . could enter into and live and move in that world if we could.'
