A devastating, well-honed prosecution detailing how our government bungled the initial salvo in the so-called war on terror, ignored attempts by top Taliban leaders to surrender, trusted the wrong people, and backed a feckless and corrupt Afghan regime . . . It is ultimately the most compelling account I've read of how Afghans themselves see the war. \u003ci\u003e--The New York Times Book Review \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn a breathtaking chronicle, acclaimed journalist Anand Gopal traces the lives of three Afghans caught in America's war on terror. He follows a Taliban commander, who rises from scrawny teenager to leading insurgent; a U.S.-backed warlord, who uses the American military to gain wealth and power; and a village housewife trapped between the two sides, who discovers the devastating cost of neutrality. Through their dramatic stories emerges a stunning tale of how the United States had triumph in sight in Afghanistan--and then brought the Taliban back from the dead.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eANAND GOPAL \u003c\/b\u003ehas served as an Afghanistan correspondent for \u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Christian Science Monitor\u003c\/i\u003e, and has reported on the Middle East and South Asia for \u003ci\u003eHarper's\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Nation\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe New Republic\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eForeign Policy\u003c\/i\u003e, and other publications.
