Focusing on southern Afghanistan in the year of Obama’s surge, Chandrasekaran, associate editor of The Washington Post and author of Little America, explores the characters and compromises involved in this epic tug of war—and its ramifications for the region and the world—concluding it’s a venture that has become unsustainable in every way: politically, financially, and strategically.
