Description

With a new foreword by the creator, The Dogs are Eating Them Now is a highly personal narrative of our war in Afghanistan and how it went dangerously mistaken. Written by a respected and fearless former foreign correspondent who has won more than one awards for his journalism (including an Emmy for the video series “Talking with the Taliban”) this can be a gripping account of up to date warfare that takes you into back alleys, cockpits, and prisons –telling stories that would have endangered his life had he published this book whilst still working as a journalist. Smith used to be not simply embedded with the military: he operated independently and at great personal risk to report from inside the war, and the heroes of his story are the translators, guides, and unusual citizens who helped him find the truth. They revealed sad, absurd, touching stories that give you the key to understanding why the mission failed to deliver peace and democracy.

From the corruption of law enforcement agents and the tribal nature of the local power structure to the economics of the drug trade and the frequent blunders of foreign troops, this is the no-holds-barred story from a leading expert at the insurgency.
