The last edition of of this book was published m January 1926. Since then various small Avesta prayer-books were published by cheap-rate dealer». Neverthless there was a demand m usual for the present edition made by the со-religionists which proves, still the high degree of their zeal and devotion for the recital of Avesta prayers in correct orthography and for understanding the sense thereof.
[quote]"There may be numerous editions of prayer-books with incorrect pronunciations prevalent among the Farsees, yet the demand for Ervad Kavasji Kanga's publications with correct pronunciation lias remained constant, inasmuch as the Parsees look upon Ervad Kanga's editions as the Standard prayer-books in point of pronunciation,
The final proofs of the last edit ion of this book as well as of recent editions: of "Yasht Ba Maeni" and "Gatha Ba Maeni" of my late Revered Grandfather were gone through by our well-known A vesta Pahlavi Scholar Ervad Bomauji Naserwanji Dhabbar, M. A. who has always obliged me by bis help. This time he was not able to help me owing to cataracts in his eyes." [quote]
