In the early nineteenth century, the world ardently anticipated the coming of the Promised One. In the West, they anticipated the Second Coming of Christ, and in the East, they fervently awaited the Advent of the Lord of the Age. On May 23, 1844, in Persia, a charismatic young merchant from Shiraz, later titled the Báb, proclaimed that He was the bearer of a divine Revelation destined to transform the spiritual life of the world. This easy to read book transports the reader to the time of the Báb and His Heroes and provides an accurate and detailed portrayal of the unfolding heroic saga of the Revelation of the Báb from His early life to His Martyrdom.
