The book is a scholarly analysis of the writings of the Baha'u'llah, the most holy works of the Baha'i Faith. His writings cover various stages in his life. The first begins with Baha'u'llah's imprisonment as a Babi and his revelation in the Siyah-Chal, and includes most of his exile to Baghdad and his solitary retreat to the mountains of Sulay-maniyyih. The second stage opens shortly before his public declaration to his companions in the Garden of Ridvan on the eve of his departure from Baghdad and includes the Istanbul and Edirne periods. The third stage, beginning in Edirne with Baha'u'llah's letters to the rulers of the world, comprises his final exile to Palestine and his remaining years in the prison of `Akka and environs until his passing in 1892.
