In 2002, Sarah Chayes, an NPR "crisis jumper", left reporting to run an Afghan nonprofit organization. There, Chayes witnessed a tragic story unfold, where the U.S. government and armed forces allowed and abetted the return to power of corrupt militia commanders to the country. In this gripping account of her four years on the ground, Chayes opens Americans' eyes to the sobering realities of this vital front in the war on terror. The Punishment of Virtue is a powerful, disturbing narrative of misguided U.S. policy and of how the deeply entrenched centuries-old traditions of tribal warlordism abide to this day.   Copy/Holding information No Item Information
