| abstract note | Robert Whitney Imbrie (April 23, 1883-July 18, 1924) was the first U.S. foreign service officer to be murdered for "political reasons." In fact, he was murdered because a murderous mob, fueld by clerical persecution and rumors about Bahá'ís, thought Imbrie was a Bahá'í and murdered him. This book recounts his life and death. |
