Peer beyond the veil of the Afghan Frontier ... for knowledge missing from your history lessons. Insightful, striking portrayal of Afghan culture and people. Walker's linked short stories describe the people and the chaos in the majestic, frightening region of the Afghanistan-Pakistan frontier from the time of the Soviet invasion to the more recent U.S.-led war...The author is well aware of the trickery and chicanery in Afghanistan, but he has great respect for the people and the region...Military tactics play against the background of the thousands of years of history that have produced the Afghanistan of today. Lt. Col. Wickliffe "Wick" Walker (U.S. Army, retired) understands Afghanistan better than any Westerner has a right to. That's why he's channeled his experience into a fictional Special Forces Officer who strides through these 13 interconnected stories about modern Afghanistan like a low-profile Lawrence of Arabia. Mr. Walker has written stories that do justice to the complexity and history of the Afghan people while attempting to convey what it was like to be an American soldier in an absurd war. Menzioni
