When I Was A Boy In Persia is a memoir written by Youel Benjamin Mirza and published in 1920. The book recounts the author's childhood experiences growing up in Persia (modern-day Iran) during the late 19th century. Mirza was born into a Jewish family and his memoir provides a unique perspective on the cultural and religious diversity of Persia during this time period.Throughout the book, Mirza describes his family's daily life, including their customs, traditions, and religious practices. He also discusses the political and social climate of Persia at the time, including the influence of the British and Russian empires on the country.The memoir is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of Mirza's childhood. Topics covered include his education, his family's business ventures, and his interactions with members of different religious and ethnic groups.Overall, When I Was A Boy In Persia provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a young Jewish boy growing up in a multicultural society during a time of great political and social change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
