Come from the Shadows

The Long and Lonely Struggle for Peace in Afghanistan

de Terry Glavin ...

Come from the Shadows is not about the Afghanistan we may think we know. It is not about the country depicted in urgent dispatches from embedded reporters; it isn't about the country evoked by anti-war protestors or the one that figures in heated political controversies over the treatment of prisoners.
