Riassunto

The Dogs are Eating Them Now is a highly personal narrative of the war in Afghanistan and how it went dangerously wrong. Written by a respected and fearless former foreign correspondent, who has won multiple awards for his journalism (including an Emmy for the video series Talking with the Taliban), this is a gripping account of modern warfare that takes readers into back alleys, cockpits and prisons - telling stories that would have endangered his life had he published this book while still working as a journalist.
