In the Graveyard of Empires: America's War in Afghanistan
This book explores the historical invasions of the Greeks, the Mongolian hordes, the British, the Soviets, and now the United States. Afghanistan has a long and tumultuous history with one specific note: it has never been conquered. This book does a pretty good job of explaining why that is such. A very interesting read on Afghanistan and its long and bloody military history. I would recommend it to anyone interested in Afghanistan's history. Thanks!
