Modern Persia

"Modern Persia" by Mooshie G. Daniel is a historical exploration of 19th-century Persia, providing a window into the social, cultural, and political shifts occurring during this period of transformation. The book aims to offer a clear picture of Persian society by addressing misunderstandings and delivering a truthful account of the country, inspired by questions Daniel received while in America. A key motivation for the author is to foster and promote missionary activities in Persia, achieved through a detailed description of current societal circumstances, religious elements, and the echoes of Persia's historic past, ultimately stressing the importance of understanding and aiding the continuing progress of Persia's culture and its people.
