On the Trail of a Lion: Tracking down Ahmed Shah Massoud

In this book, author Andrew Ronald shares his experiences with the legendary Lion of Panjshir, Afghan leader Ahmed Shah Massoud. Killed mysteriously just two days before the Al Qaeda attacks on the World Trade Center, Massoud has been called the 'Afghan Che Guevara' for his vision of his country's future and his will and desire to fulfill that vision. Ronald's writings and anecdotes give us a deep and crucial insight into the character, beliefs, and personal makeup of one of Central Asia's most intriguing and important personalities over the last two decades.
