Here is the long-awaited translation of Khatirat-i-Nuh-Saliy-i-Akka, the memoirs of Dr. Youness Afroukhteh who served Abdu'l-Baha as His trusted secretary and interpreter from 1900-1909. For many years, Abdu'l-Baha was imprisoned in Akka. These years were long and hard. Abdu'l-Baha was put through many tests which only made him stronger. This is a very important historical record. This book also describes the pilgrimages to Akka of many eminent eary Western Baha'is including Thomas Breakwell, Hippolyte Dreyfus, Lua Getsinger and Laura Barney. Dr. Youness Afroukheteh serves the honor of being Abdu'l-Baha's secretary, translator, envoy and physician. This volume is lovely and memorable. A must for any library collection.
