In January 1964, <b>Robin Moore</b> went to Vietnam. He had attended Jump School at Fort Benning–with the special approval of President John F. Kennedy–and was the first and only civilian ever allowed to go through the grueling Special Forces qualification course at Fort Bragg. The result was <i>The Green Berets</i>, a bestselling book about a unique and remarkable group of fighting men. Robin Moore went on to write three more books about the war in Vietnam. He has also written several novels, including <i>The French Connection</i>; a book about terrorists in South Africa; and an exposé of the smuggling of nuclear arms from Russia after the Communist era.
In this acclaimed, groundbreaking bestseller about America’s war against al-Qaida in Afghanistan, Robin Moore–with exclusive access and his trademark expertise–takes you on a top-secret tour of the most covert conflict since the CIA’s war in Laos. This is a blistering, behind-the-scenes account of America’s first strike in its war against terrorism. From the international outrage of 9/11 to its immediate aftermath–the unprecedented Special Ops assault on Osama Bin Laden’s bases–all aspects of this astonishing story are revealed for the first time. Here is how a few hundred Green Berets toppled the Taliban and how Bin Laden may have made his escape. <br><b><br></b>
