A pen-picture of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. This collection brings together in one volume the various writings of George Townshend to and about 'Abdu'l-Bahá, so that his own portrait of the Master emerges, with fitting reverence to the Centre of the Covenant, and the Exemplar. George Townshend dwells with emphasis on 'Abdu'l-Bahá's historic journey to the West in his essays on 'The Master' and 'The Exemplar'. In 'A Study of a Christ-like Character', 'The Letters of 'Abdu'l-Bahá' and 'The Fire of the King's Love', he leads the reader into a fuller realization of that divine love and spirituality exemplified in the Master's life.
