In 1991, Nick Brazil went to Albania with a small charity to deliver basic food and medical supplies to hospitals and villages. What he found there was a chaotic country in transition between communist dictatorship and democracy. It was a dangerous land of hospitals with no medicines, ambushes and secret police threatening aid workers. This is the story of his experiences.
