From the award-winning co-author of 'I Am Malala', this book asks just how the m
ight of NATO, with 48 countries and 140,000 troops on the ground, failed to defe
at a group of religious students and farmers? How did it go so wrong? 'Farewell
Kabul' tells how the West turned success into defeat in the longest war fought b
y the United States in its history and by Britain since the Hundred Years War. I
t is the story of well-intentioned men and women going into a place they did not
understand at all. And how, what had once been the right thing to do had become
a conflict that everyone wanted to exit.
