In The American War in Afghanistan, Carter Malkasian provides the first authoritative history of the entire conflict. He moves through its multiple phases: the 2001 invasion and after; the light American footprint during the 2003 Iraq invasion; the resurgence of the Taliban in 2006, the Obama-era surge, and the various resets in strategy and force allocations that occurred from 2011 onward, culminating in the US exit from Afghanistan in 2021. This new paperback edition ends with a detailed chapter on the final defeat of the government and the dramatic American evacuation. Wise and all-encompassing, this book-updated to cover the end of the conflict-will stand as the most significant account of America's longest war for years to come.
