Spanning 900 years of history, this book explores the genesis, florescence, degeneration, and regeneration of the 'saint cult' and shrine-complex of Shaykh al-Islam Ahmad-i Jam. Cult and shrine fell into decline under Iran's first Shi?i shahs, but are enjoying a renaissance under the Ayatollahs despite being an adamantly Sunni institution.
