Book Review: “Ghost wars” The Secret history of the CIA, Afghanistan and Bin Laden, from the Soviet invasion to September 10, 2001. Steve Coll


 
This was one of those ones that I picked at for a while, 588 pages with nearly as many foot notes.  A little dry unless you like geopolitics.  I did find it timely and relevant to our current engagement with radical Islam.  It sheds some light as to its genesis and maybe a way ahead if we choose to look back at our history.  If this is a toilet reader for ya and you read like me it might take a year to digest!
