Thy People is the testimony of one woman?s devotion. Mariam Salam was born in Rotherham, a small town in Yorkshire, known for the wild beauty of its moors and the robust common sense of its people. She graduated from Oxford University with a degree in English Literature and the conviction that each and every human being can achieve anything he truly sets his heart upon. Then she acquired a teaching diploma from the Institute of Education, London University. It was there that she met and married a young Pakistani law student Abdul Shakur-ul-Salam. With unflinching devotion, she followed him over continents and oceans, through the barriers of culture, creed, language, color and traditions, to his home in Pakistan. The devotion which she initially gave him grew, over the years, to embrace not only his immediate and extended family but also the whole community to which he belonged, until his people had become wholly and irrevocably her very own.
