Soft cover. Condición: New. "Under One Tent: A History of Bahá'ís in Northern Canada" by Leslie Cole is the story of the introduction and expansion of the Bahá'í Faith in Northern Canada (Yukon, Northwest Territories and later, Nunavut) focusing on the 1950s to 2000. This book describes the Yukon First Nations's rapid acceptance of Bahá'u'lláh's Revelation, recognizing in 'Abdu'l Bahá's teaching that all would be gathered under one tent an echo of their own traditions. These early Bahá'ís took on leadership and teaching roles across the North. More than 100 members of one extended family became Bahá'ís in the Yukon before 1970. This is also a story of Inuit believers who risked ostracism from their families and travelled thousands of kilometres to share their Faith with other Inuit. Based on more than five years of research and 30 interviews with retired pioneers and early believers, the author writes of Indigenous visions and dreams of 'Abdu'l Bahá, pioneer memories of hardship and humour, and provides an analysis of the crises and victories faced by believers in the North. This book is important for both northern and southern Bahá'ís to learn from the history of the Faith in Northern Canada, and to offer encouragement and inspiration to growing Bahá'í communities.…

Soft cover. Condición: New. 1st Edition. "Carpet of Tears: Resilience in War Zones" is a collection of true-to-life tales about women, men and children who have coped with violence in countries where venal rulers have wrought political havoc. This has become more and more common in recent years and this book, through its stories, portrays this spread of social chaos. The author has known many of these individuals, or known of them, and in some cases has been exposed to these crises first-hand. These are stories about those, undaunted, who have stood up to these tragic circumstances and the rogue actors who provoke them. Some of the victims have survived, some have not, and this book is a tribute to them. If there is hope for a better world, some small part of this hope can be glimpsed in these stories.…
