The Altar on the Hearth

George Townshend

Dublin, Ireland: The Talbot Tress Limited, 1927

"Prior to 1926, George believed that by staying as a clergyman and working within the church, he could gradually influence its leaders to bring the whole church into the Cause of Bahá'u'lláh. He planned to do this mainly through his writing. His first effort was a book of prayers and meditations emphasizing renewed revelation of truth from God and a new spiritual civilization, but without directly mentioning the revelation of Bahá'u'lláh. Called The Altar on the Hearth, it was popular and sold well." (from Some Early Believers in the West)
