It covers political, cultural, strategic, and tactical aspects of the war and details the actions and decision-making of the United States, Afghan government, and Taliban. The work follows a narrative format to go through the 2001 US invasion, the state-building of 2002-2005, the Taliban offensive of 2006, the US surge of 2009-2011, the subsequent drawdown, and the peace talks of 2019-2020. The book examines the overarching questions of the war: Why did the United States fail? What opportunities existed to reach a better outcome? Why did the United States not withdraw from the war?"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Malkasian Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Liliha Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 958.10473 Ma Checked In Add Copy to MyList
