In His Presence
Here is a collection of three touching accounts of pilgrimages to the Holy Land in the time of 'Abdu'l-Bahá. These are classic works of Bahá'í history and literature.Roy Wilhelm's account is from 1907. Stanwood Cobb's remarkable "Memories of 'Abdu'l-Bahá" discusses his meetings with the Master in 1908, 1910, 1912, and 1913. Genevieve Coy made her pilgrimage in 1920, and spent a week in the Holy Household. All three allow us to share the joys and pains of their visits, humanizing people often spoken of as giants of the early Faith.It is powerful opportunity for readers to get in touch with their spiritual heritage.

The Real Turk
Cobb spent three years in Turkey learning about the culture. He writes about the "character" or cultural norms, and climate in the first chapter, crediting the hot climate to certain behaviors that Americans deem "lazy". He discusses the prototypical Turk in his mindset ("medieval"); as a citizen; in business; women and gender roles; and home life. He gives a chapter to a profile of Tewfik Fikret Bey. Cobb spends a good portion of his book on education in the Ottoman Empire--Turkish schools, the education of girls, American influence on Turkish education, and education at Robert College specifically. Finally, the last few chapters discuss Islam, Islam and the inner life, sects, particular beliefs and rites, faith healing, and cross-cultural exchange.
