Priceless Pearl

The Priceless Pearl is an appraisal of the life and work of Shoghi Effendi, the Guardian of the Bahá'í Faith. The panorama of his life, so filled with sorrow and drama, victory and crisis, stretches through the pages of this book in a memorable and moving tale of historic events. This biography--which serves as a tribute to a unique and far-visioned figure in Bahá'í history--was penned by Ruhiyyih Rabbani, the wife of Shoghi Effendi, who served him tirelessly as his personal secretary, who was appointed by him a Hand of the Cause of God, and who he stated had been his "shield" during difficult days in his life.
