His memoirs, translated from Pashto, are more than just a personal account of his extraordinary life. My Life with the Taliban offers a counter-narrative to the standard accounts of Afghanistan since 1979. Zaeef describes growing up in rural poverty in Kandahar province. Both of his parents died at an early age, and the Russian invasion of 1979 forced him to flee to Pakistan. He started fighting the jihad in 1983, during which time he was associated with many major figures in the anti-Soviet resistance, incl 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a958.1047 700 $aZaeef$b Abdul Salam$01054102 702 $aStrick van Linschoten$b Alex 702 $aKuehn$b Felix 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463177603321 996 $aMy Life with the Taliban$92486430 997 $aUNINA
