This book is about a Pashtun with a mission for a land ravaged by Taliban fighters and drone strikes. The story of a special man, a special culture, and special events in an extremely dangerous but also beautiful area. Mohammad Ashraf Khan was born in the Pashtun border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan. He grew up among a people ruled by ancient tribal laws. He got the chance to study. He built stone by stone, a huge hospital on the border of his native region. A region and nation that is ravaged by a conflict that no one had chosen. A conflict that made the area a war zone and destroys a four thousand-year culture. An area where drone attacks and kidnappings make life a daily hell. He was kidnapped by his own people. Four times his satellite hospitals in the tribal areas were destroyed by violence.
