About this listen

"In Fool's Errand, Scott Horton masterfully explains the tragedy of America's longest war and makes the case for immediate withdrawal. I highly recommend this excellent book on America's futile and self-defeating occupation of Afghanistan." - Daniel Ellsberg, Pentagon Papers whistleblower and author of Secrets: A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers

"The real story of the disastrous US war in Afghanistan must be written so that future generations may understand the folly of Washington's warmongers. Scott Horton's Afghan war history is an important contribution to this vital effort." - Ron Paul, M.D., former US congressman and author of Swords into Plowshares: A Life in Wartime and a Future of Peace and Prosperity

I've heard 3 titles so far and this is the best

History of Afgan war in nutshell

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
full of fascinating info, BUT, mostly washed over ears due to monotone robotic reading style and relatively soft voice which is hard to focus on. Needs a professional narrator to do the book justice

fact packed but appeal lost due to monotonous reading
