This delightful book fulfills a desire of those who wish to know about the social and religious system of the Parsis. And there are many who have this desire for though the Parsi People are few in number – so few that in the statistics of the world population they are simply insignificant – they have an importance that is out of all proportion to their number.
The Parsis are the best educated community in the whole of Asia. In trade, commerce and industry they have proved themselves among the most active and enterprising of the people of the world. In public spirit and philanthropy they have set a notable example to all men. Exiled for many centuries form their own land, they have maintained their identity as a race, and they have not ceased to take pride in their long and wonderful history.
Commending the book Mr. John McKenzie states in his Foreword that this book stands out from the many works written about the Parsis and Zoroastrianism. He says that this is certainly the look to know more about the Parsi way of life.
