Publisher's note

An agency insider furnishes an eye-opening account of the role of the CIA in the war against terror in Afghanistan, chronicling the complex--and ultimately successful--negotiations with Afghan warlords that led to the defeat of the Taliban, despite the disastrous close calls caused by pressure from Washington. Reprint.

Annotation

A former CIA officer recounts his last, post-911, assignment: infiltrate behind enemy lines in Afghanistan and lay the groundwork for the invasion to come. Gary Schoen tells how he established contact with the Northern Alliance, and conveys his efforts to navigate between the bureaucracy back in Washington and the (perhaps) medieval ways of the Afghan warlords.
