A selection of Arabic articles and meditations—many from al-Awasif and al-Bada'i' wa-l-Tara'if—translated by Anthony R. Ferris. It includes pieces on the nation, freedom and poetry, as well as 'The New Frontier', the 1925 essay whose phrasing about what one can do for one's country has been compared with John F. Kennedy's inaugural address.
