Memories Of Nine Years In Akka

Here is the long-awaited translation of Khatirát-i-Nuh-Saliy-i-‘Akká, the memoirs of Dr.Yúnis Afrukhtih who served ‘Abdu’l-Bahá as His trusted secretary and interpreter from 1900-1909. These were difficult years when the Master was imprisoned in the city of ‘Akká, His every move subject to misrepresentation by the Arch-breaker of the Covenant and his associates, and even His life in danger. At the same time the period saw the victories of the construction of the Shrine of the Báb and the House of Worship in ‘Ishqábád, and the rise of the Cause of Bahá’u’lláh in the West.
