In the acclaimed new book The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict Between America and Al-Qaeda, journalist and foreign policy analyst Peter Bergen offers a deep and insightful perspective on both sides of the U.S.’s ongoing conflict with Osama bin Laden and the Al-Qaeda network. Michiko Kakutani of the New York Times writes: “For readers interested in a highly informed, wide-angled, single-volume briefing on the war on terror so far, “The Longest War” is clearly that essential book.”
