In The Longest War Peter Bergen offers a comprehensive history of
the war on terror and its evolution, from the strategies devised in
the wake of the 9/11 attacks to the fighting in Afghanistan,
Pakistan, and beyond. Unlike any other book on this subject, Bergen
tells the story of this shifting war's failures and successes from
both the perspective of the United States and al-Qaeda and its
allies. He goes into the homes of al-Qaeda members, rooting into
the source of their devotion to terrorist causes, and he spends
time in the offices of the major players shaping the U.S. strategic
efforts in the region. At a time when many are frustrated or
fatigued with what has become an enduring multigenerational
conflict, this book will provide an illuminating narrative that not
only traces the arc of the fight, but projects its likely future.
At a critical moment in world history The Longest War provides the
definitive account of the ongoing battle against terror.
