    Professionally packed, quickly shipped, as described, in prime condition, good value for indeed rare volume on an abstruse topic, by world-renowned authority in this field. Riveting account of Boyce's first-hand experiences researching Zoroastrian practices & rituals in Iran in the 1960's. This is one of the rarer titles, detailing her field work in a lesser known aspect of monotheism-- the Zoroastrian faith. As trained scholar & friend of that faith's priest locally, this is of great interest.
