About This Book

The author argues that overcoming racial division requires prior spiritual reconciliation and presents a comparative study of world religions that highlights shared doctrines and moral jewels. He combines biographical and historical sketches of religious figures, reprints peace manifestos such as that of the Religious Society of Friends, and engages with Bahai teachings and correspondence to illustrate a universalist faith. The text proposes simultaneous membership in multiple spiritual brotherhoods, offers illustrative studies and a bibliography, and urges reconstruction of international relations based on common religious principles to secure lasting peace.
