By Thy Strengthening Grace
From Bahaipedia
The first century-long history of the Baha'i community of Topeka, Kansas. Follow the adventure of how an alternative religious community was created in a society where not only were its concepts and teachings, but it's very name was unknown and alien. This community was built without force or coersion on the part of anyone, and most interestingly, without the benefit of clergy.
Read how the early Baha'is learned what it meant to be a Baha'i, the first steps of a baby Assembly, how did they respond to events in the larger Baha'i world?
This book received the Ferguson Kansas History Book Award for 2007 for its contribution to the advancement of Kansas history.
