Read this in almost one sitting,after a glowing review in last weeks Globe. A great travelogue of one of the most daunting places on Earth. He walked in regions no one, not even Afghans travel. After reading this book which recounts his travels 2 months after the fall of the Taliban, you understand how complex the situation is over there. The more I learn, the more I realize how doomed the "mission" is over there. You can read the first few hundreds words here.
