Drawing on hundreds of interviews, troves of previously untapped material from Afghan government archives and months of experience living and reporting in Afghanistan, Jack Fairweather traces the course of the conflict from its inception following the terrorist attacks of 9/11 to its steady drawdown during President Obama's second term, in the process offering a bold reassessment of the war.
