Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Printed in Great Britain. [Date from the copyright page.] First Printing. Preface, Summaries, Notes; xvi, 243 pages. The original blue boards are near fine, with corners square and gilt lettering on the spine as bright as if just issued. The interior is fresh, bright, crisp and clean, despite some dust spotting to the top-edge. The original dust jacket shows just a touch of rubbing and slight discoloration to the interior; it is unclipped, with descriptions of the publisher's other offerings on the two flaps. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "Both scholars and popular writers represent the Sufis as mystics and classical authors, working with an archaic tradition of divine illuminism. Hadrat Dervish provides, for the first time, an account of the interplay of the ancient beliefs and practices with the world as it is today: giving unique and unparalleled insights into who the Sufis really are, what they say and do, and what their effect is upon the modern world." (From the rear panel.) Chapter epigraphs from Al-Arabi, Bahauddin Naqshband, Dhul Nun / Kalabadhi, Rumi, Sahl of Tustar, Subhani, Ghajdawani, Ghulam Haidar, Hafiz, Omar Kayyam, Hazrat Ali ibn Abi Talib, Prince Dara Shikoh. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.
