<br/><br/>The most complete academic treatment of the early years of the Bábi Faith. With energy and power, eminent historian Abbas Amanat communicates fully the sense of elation and terror that accompanied the birth of the New Age. He recounts the full story of the early converts and martyrs, the message of the Prophet, the shaping of the community, and the final break with Islam. A brilliant and important work of scholarship!
