This is the first biography of Lord Headley, who made international
headlines in 1913 when he defied convention by publicly converting
to Islam. Drawing on previously unpublished archival sources, this
book focuses on Headley's religious beliefs, conversion to Islam,
and work as a Muslim leader during and after the First World War.
Lord Headley slipped into obscurity following his death in 1935,
but there is growing recognition globally that he is a pivotal
figure in the history of Western Islam and Muslim-Christian
relations; this book evaluates the strengths and weaknesses,
successes and failures of the man and his work, and considers his
significance for contemporary understandings of Islam in the Global
West.
