'Abdu'l-Baha, The Centre of the Covenant of Baha'u'llah was the first comprehensive biography of this 'magnetic figure' and 'perfect Exemplar' of Baha'i life, and remains the foremost source for subsequent accounts. Over 250 pages describe 'Abdu'l-Baha's journey to the West, the places He visited and audiences He addressed, many of those who were privileged to meet Him, and the example He gave in daily life. The ideals He upheld for all are reflected in a wealth of quotations from His talks.

Autorenporträt
H. M. Balyuzi, loved and honoured throughout the Bahá'í world for his invaluable books on the three Central Figures of the Bahá'í Faith, as well as for other important works, was mourned on his passing by the Universal House of Justice as one of 'the most powerful defenders, most resourceful historians' of the Faith.He was related to the Báb, and a member of a family distinguished in Iran, but his belief was of conviction and not inheritance. It was his meeting at the age of seventeen with the Guardian, Shoghi Effendi, that stirred him to accept nearly five decades of unceasing labour in administrative, teaching and scholarly fields for the advancement of the Cause.HM Balyuzi graduated from the American University of Beirut and later took his M.Sc. (Econ.) at London. At the outbreak of war in 1939, he joined the Persian service of the BBC. He was for many years chairman of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of the British Isles and in 1957 he was elevated to the rank of Hand of the Cause of God. The last fifteen years his life were wholly devoted to the writing of the eight books by which he will always be remembered. Mr Balyuzi passed away in London in 1980.
