This "closely observed chronicle of Afghanistan's descent into chaos, and its attempts to rebound...full of vivid incident and astute analysis" ( Wall Street Journal ) totally overturns our conventional and simplistic understandings of what has happened in that country. Kathy Gannon, uniquely among Western journalists, witnessed Afghanistan's tragic opera: the final collapse of communism, the wars of the warlords finally driven from power by the Taliban, the subsequent arrival of Arabs and exiles, among them Osama Bin Laden, and the transformation of the country into the staging post for a global jihad. She also observed the terrible, unforeseen consequences of Western intervention and the mistakes we made, and are still making, in dealing with this complex country.
