Summary, etc. This major study of one of the most significant but comparatively lesser known of modern movements amongst Muslims was first published in 1917 and has been out of print for long. Starting with an introductory chapter on Mirza Ghulam Ahmed, the founder of the movement the author examines his distinctive claim in the second chapter. The third chapter addresses itself to the move­ment and orthodox Islam, the fourth deals with the movement and Christianity. The fifth compares Ahmadiya movement with indigenous religions of India. In the sixth chapter the author examines the Ahmadiya community as such and concludes with a perceptive assessment of the movement’s significance in its relation to the general development of Muslim thought and life in India. He has also explained in the footnotes, for the benefit of the reader not familiar with the orthodox Muslim faith, such words and ideals as are peculiar to Islam and also allusions to events and personalities pertaining to India or the Mohammedan world in general. An Ahmadiya bibliography, appendices and index further add to the usefulness of the book. A major study of the Ahmadiya movement which would be found useful by students of comparative religions and their history." "Howard Arnold Walter (1883-1918) was an American Congre­gationalist assistant minister, hymn writer and author. He was born in New Britain, Connecticut. In 1913, Walter joined YMCA and left for Lahore. He wrote one of the earliest studies on the Ahmadiya Movement in 1918. He died in 1918 at the age of 35 in Lahore."
