A TLS and a Prospect Book of the Year A revelatory, explosive new
analysis of the military today. Over the first two decades of the
twenty-first century the British Army fought in Iraq and
Afghanistan, at considerable financial and human cost. Yet neither
war achieved its objectives. Award-winning journalist Simon Akam
questions why, and provides challenging but necessary answers.
Composed from assiduous documentary research, field reportage, and
hundreds of interviews, this book is a strikingly rich, nuanced
portrait of one of our pivotal national institutions in a time of
great stress. This is as much a book about Britain, and about the
politics of failure, as it is about the military.
