Lady Blomfield
Lady Blomfield, Her Life and Times by Robert Weinberg
The Life of Sara Louisa, Lady Blomfield, spanned one of the most exciting periods in human history - the last half of the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries and the social and political developments that defined the era: the suffragist movement, the rise of eastern religious thought, and more. She experienced the poverty of rural Ireland and the ceremony of the roal court in London.
The author's detailed research has yielded a fascinating insight into the life of Lady Blomfield, her family and her circle, and into the life of 'Abdu'l-Baha as it touched the lives of the British Baha'is. Punctuated by glimpses into London society and the rapidly developing Baha'i community, Weinberg's book provides compelling grounds for Lady Blomfields inclusion in the 'galaxy of unforgettable women' who 'became the principal exponents of the Baha'i message on both sides of the Atlantic'.
