<p>This book is the inspirational true story of young man willing to risk it all.</p><p>Since the Islamic Revolution began in 1979, millions of Iranians have fled to Turkey seeking refuge from religious and political persecution. In 1988, I was one of them.</p><p>My family are followers of the Baha'i Faith, a religion founded in Iran and practiced by millions of people worldwide today. Muslims in Iran consider it a blasphemous, illegitimate religion. For more than four decades, Baha'is in Iran have been stripped of all human rights. We are routinely arrested, detained, tortured, imprisoned, and executed without cause.</p><p>This is my story about what life was like living under Islamic rule. It's a story about determination, perseverance, and Faith.</p><p>I was 25 when I fled Iran with two friends. We crossed the forbidding Zagros Mountains in the height of winter, seeking asylum in Turkey. More than a year later, I arrived in America, speaking little English, knowing no one, and understanding little about the country except what I gleaned from television.</p><p><em>One More Mountain</em> provides a never-before-seen look at what life in Iran is still like for those who have no power, no voice, and no freedoms.</p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Mansur Nurdel<br><b>Publisher:</b> Mansur Nurdel<br><b>Published:</b> 03/08/2023<br><b>Pages:</b> 346<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.75lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.72d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9798987808610
