| adam_text | ”A scathing dispatch from an embedded
journalist in Afghanistan ... Pungent,
embittered, eye-opening observations of a
conflict involving lessons still unlearned.
—Kirkus Renews
As with an album of closeup photographs,
Wissing s concise essays cast a sharp and
revealing light on their subject. Here we
confront in granular detail the waste and
folly that is America s war in Afghanistan.
An empire in decline does not make for
a pretty picture.
— VNDKhW |. BACEVICH. author of
America * War far the C treater licMlc I it*!:
, Militant I lishm•
If I could recommend one book about
Afghanistan to the next president, it d be
this one. If s/he can t learn the lessons of
the failed war in Iraq from the ground truth,
maybe s/he can learn them from Wissing s
brilliant, funny, sad, irreverent, serious,
deeply reported, hopeless—but always
optimistic—book. Required reading.
—PETF.R vw BliREN. former t1S Stale
Department foreign sen ice officer and
author of We Meant Well: l ion I I lelped
Lose the War for the I learts and Minds
of the Iraqi People
