Vignettes from the Life of 'Abdu'l-Bah is a unique collection of stories sayings and comments providing a special insight into the life character and station of Bah u llh s eldest son. He was universally known to Bah s as the Master but wished only to be known as the Servant. Not only those qualities for which He was chosen as the Centre of Bah u llh s Covenant but also the human virtues which made Him the Perfect Exemplar for all Bah s are amply illustrated in over two hundred and fifty vignettes of His life drawn from a very wide range of published out-of-print and unpublished sources. The book is divided into three main sections His Pure Heart His Kindly Heart and His Radiant Heart; and for those not already acquainted with the main events of His life there is a brief factual introduction. The book is enhanced by a mixed selection of rare and well-loved photographs and is itself dedicated to 'Abdu'l-Bah.
