How did this lone Canadian painter come to be in Bulgaria? What brought her? Why did she choose to stay in this unfamiliar country all during the ravages and trials of the Second World War? Who was Marion Jack and why was she called an 'immortal heroine'?
An adventurer who travelled by boat up the Yukon, an art student in Paris, a suffragette in London, a teacher in the Middle Eastern household of 'Abdu'l-Bahá, a 'pioneer' who took the message of Bahá'u'lláh to the heart of the Balkans - unstoppable, indomitable, she was 'General Jack', who was never afraid to dare.
This is the fascinating and well-researched story of an artist who dedicated her life to the promotion of peace, brotherhood and the unity of humankind.
