In
the
tradition
of
Spalding
Gray's
Swimming
to
Cambodia,
Ian
Pounds
recounts
the
at
turns
humorous
and
inspiring
story
of
his
solo
journey
to
Afghanistan
as
a
response
to
a
splintered
life,
landing
him
as
the
only
westerner
in
an
orphanage
in
Kabul.
After
four
years
teaching
over
300
boys
and
girls
representative
of
all
regions
and
races,
Pounds
gives
unique
insight
to
the
people
and
the
country
of
America's
longest
conflict.
Ultimately
this
is
the
tale
of
how,
in
living
among
children
of
war
a
man
discovers
how
truly
a
land,
its
people
and
a
broken
heart
can
become
Undestroyed.
