The Beloved:
The Life and Work of Meher Baba
by Naosherwan Anzar
Hardbound. $18; Paperback, $12

Naosherwan Anzar first met Meher Baba as a child and spent much time with Baba, and in writing this book he draws from many sources. From the earliest times Baba instructed various of His disciples to keep extremely detailed diaries, transcribing verbatim all of His talks. Thus Naosherwan was able to supplement his own personal knowledge and experience of Baba with the invaluable information contained in these diaries. The book is also filled with a marvelous pictorial record of His early years, containing 165 photos.
