Advance copy from NetGalley。Essential reading， particularly given the disastrous， dishonorable withdrawal from the country precipitated by the current administration， a disaster anticipated by this author。 The Long War will surely be recognized as one of the early authoritative histories of the war in Afghanistan。 It is， however， not only a detailed historical account but an extensive analysis of what went right， what went wrong and what should of been done。 Mr。 Loyn not only spent a lot of time Advance copy from NetGalley。Essential reading， particularly given the disastrous， dishonorable withdrawal from the country precipitated by the current administration， a disaster anticipated by this author。 The Long War will surely be recognized as one of the early authoritative histories of the war in Afghanistan。 It is， however， not only a detailed historical account but an extensive analysis of what went right， what went wrong and what should of been done。 Mr。 Loyn not only spent a lot of time reporting on the ground in Afghanistan， before and during the war， but he also served its President， enabling him to provide analysis most historians and reporters cannot。 If only this book could have been put on Mr。 Biden's desk months ago， or on the desk of any one of his predecessors。 Highly recommended for anyone wishing to understand the 20 year conflict in Afghanistan and the potentially irreparable consequences of President Biden's hasty， ugly retreat。 。。。more
