| Abstract
|
:
|
The longest war the US has ever fought is the ongoing war in Afghanistan. But by 'Afghanistan' we really mean a conflict that straddles the border with Pakistan - and the reality of Islamic militancy on that border is enormously complicated. This book examines in detail the embattled territory from Kandahar in Afghanistan to Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province and Federally Administered Tribal Areas.
