Summary:
"Charlie Wilson's war is the untold story of the last battle of the Cold War and how it fueled the rise of militant Islam. Charlie Wilson, a maverick congressman from east Texas, conspired with a rogue CIA operative to launch the biggest, meanest, and most successful covert operation in the Agency's history. In the early 1980's, after a Houston socialite turned Wilson's attention to the ragged Afghan freedom fighters who continued to fight the Soviet invaders despite overwheliming odds, the congressman became passionate about their cause and procured hundreds of dollars to support the mujahideen. Moving from the back rooms of the Capitol, to secret chamgers at Langley, to arms-dealers convetions, to the Khyber-Pass, Charlie Wilson's war is a detailed and brillantly reported account of the inside workings of the CIA."--Container.
