Description
AUTHOR : Khan Abdul Ghani Khan
The Pathan is not a conventional history of the Pashtun people, nor is it a systematic anthropological study. It is a highly personal literary portrait in which Khan Abdul Ghani Khan
attempts to make the Pathan understandable to an outside reader by allowing the reader to encounter him through stories, songs, customs, humor, violence, tenderness, political struggle and personal memory. The author openly acknowledges that his portrait is not “unbiased”; indeed, at the conclusion he insists that he writes as someone who loves his people and therefore cannot pretend to stand outside them.
