Inhaltsangabe

A harrowing exploration of the uniquely dangerous experience of men whose survival depends on their absolute commitment to one another—from the bestselling author of The Perfect Storm.

"Incisive ... absorbing ... original." —New York Times Book Review

Sebastian Junger turns his brilliant and empathetic eye to the reality of combat—the fear, the honor, and the trust among men in an extreme situation. His on-the-ground account follows a single platoon through a 15-month tour of duty in the most dangerous outpost in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley. 

Through the experiences of these young men at war, he shows what it means to fight, to serve, and to face down mortal danger on a daily basis.
