In this prehistory of the 2001 war in Afghanistan, Steve Coll, a Washington Post editor, pieces together the alliances, intrigue, and failures of intelligence that allowed Al Qaeda to get a foothold in that country. He chronicles the disturbing role of America's supposed ally, Saudi Arabia, in building up Osama bin Laden. And he examines the historical record of the Clinton and George W. Bush administrations in regard to counterterrorism policy. Here he includes much insider information and analysis about the various intelligence agencies, their agendas, and rivalries. Coll connects America's effort to support anti-Soviet groups in Afghanistan in the 1980's with the eventual rise of Al Qaeda and, later, the events of September 11, 2001. A New York Times Notable Book for 2004. It was also the winner of the Pulitzer Prize. More
