Hi everyone,

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of The Paradise of the Fathers (a.k.a Bustan el-Rohban) in English?

Thanks George, but it seems as though I didn't clarify my question enough, sorry. Smile

What I'm actually looking for is the complete version of both volumes that was first published in 1907, the translator being A.E. Wallis Budge. I found Volume 1 on Amazon, but I can't seem to find any print version of Volume 2.

If anyone else knows where I can get the book(s), please post it on this forum.

Thank you and God be with you all.

I own both of the volumes that you talked about, by A.E. Wallis Budge from 1907. I bought them from the saint antony's monastery (here in california). If you call the monastery you can ask to have them shipped to you.

Thanks Amen,

I am aware of those two files. I was just looking for a professionally bound copy.

George,

The books have been out of publication for so long that they are now in the public domain.

Thanks again.
