Baha'u'llah & the New Era 1970 by -J. Esslemont- 1 Para

When the war broke out, 'Abdu'l-Baha, Who had already spent fifty-five years of His life in exile and prison, became again virtually a prisoner of the Turkish Government. Communication with friends and believers outside Syria was almost completely cut off, and He and His little band of followers were again subjected to straitened circumstances, scarcity of food and great personal danger and inconvenience. (45:3)
