This is a new, revised edition of the popular introductory book, first published in 1922, which has been translated into more than 60 languages. Bahá'u'lláh and the New Era answers some of the most common questions asked upon first encountering the Bahá'í Faith, as well as offering a glimpse of its exciting potential. 

Chapters include What is a Bahá'í?, Religious Unity, True Civilization, Religion and Science, Prophecies Fulfilled by the Bahá'í Movement, as well as potted biographies of Bahá'u'lláh, the Báb and 'Abdu'l-Bahá.
