When I Was A Boy In Persia is a memoir written by Mirza Youel Benjamin, originally published in 1920. The book chronicles the author's childhood and adolescence in Persia (modern-day Iran) during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mirza Youel Benjamin was a member of the Jewish community in Persia, and his memoir provides a unique perspective on life in the country during this time period. He writes about his family, his education, and his experiences growing up in a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society. The book also provides insight into the political and social climate of Persia during this time period, including the country's relationship with foreign powers and the tensions between different religious and ethnic groups. Overall, When I Was A Boy In Persia is a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era and a culture that is not often represented in Western literature. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Persian history, Jewish history, or the experiences of minorities in the Middle East.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
