In 1949, Melba and Jim Loft abandoned a comfortable middle-class existence in Marysville, Michigan, to teach their Faith in the land of Jim's forefathers, the Tyendinaga Mohawk Indian Reserve in Ontario, Canada. Despite hardship and tragedy, the Lofts persevered, fulfilling Jim and Melba's cherished dream of bringing Baha'u'llah's word to First Nations people. This, their daughter Evelyn's memoir, is the record of that challenging and exhilarating time.

The biography of a family who embraced the Bahá’í Faith in its earliest days in the United States and worked tirelessly to establish the Bahá’í community in Washington D.C. They also had the privilege of visiting and corresponding with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and served Him throughout His visit to North America. Author Judy Hannen Moe, the great-granddaughter of Joseph and Pauline Hannen, has combed through several archival collections in order to piece together the story of these inspiring souls. The resulting book is a treasure trove of highlights from the early days of the Faith in America, and an intimate glimpse of the lives of a handful of brilliant and devoted servants of the Cause.

An inspiring biography on the life of John Bosch and his wife Louise. Perhaps best known for their efforts and selfless generosity in helping to establish a Bahá’í school in northern California, they were also among a small group of pilgrims present at the time of the Master’s passing and their experience of the event and the special tasks they performed are shared in detail.

Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar-i-Nakhjavání (1865-1920) is a moving biography of an early believer who had a personal relationship with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar translated many Bahá’í Tablets into Russian and, at ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s request, corresponded with some of the leading literary figures of the time—including Leo Tolstoy and Isabella Grinevskaya. Mírzá ‘Alí-Akbar-i-Nakhjavání also had the great honor of traveling with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá as part of His entourage on His journey through North America in 1912. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s fondness for this young gentleman of the Caucasus is evident not only in the details of their interactions but in the many Tablets that the Master addressed to him.

Review This Product
The life of Louise Gregory has been overshadowed by that of her brilliant husband, Hand of the Cause Louis Gregory. This book restores the balance, showing that during her long life Louise achieved much in her own right.
This is a moving biography sharing Louise's childhood and education in England and Europe, her travels to Egypt in 1911 to meet 'Abdu'l-Baha, her travels to America in 1912 and the diffilculties and love of an inter-racial marriage at that time, and her extensive travel teaching in Europe to countries such as Luxembourg, Germany, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria.

Review This Product
Hand of the Cause Abu’l-Qásim Faizi was much loved by Bahá’ís around the world for his wisdom, candor and humor, for the quiet, unobtrusive ways in which he helped the needy, and for the courage and fortitude he instilled in believers, particularly in pioneers living in arduous conditions. His daughter, May Faizi-Moore has offered, in this personal account of his life, an intimate glimpse into the challenges and triumphs of Mr. Faizi as he served throughout his life.
