A vivid insider's account of a life in intelligence, special operations, and strategy from the Cold War to the war with al-Qa'ida * "[An] illuminating and richly detailed memoir." --The New York Times Book Review "Deeply insightful.A sweeping and breathtaking journey that gives the reader unprecedented access to the courage, sacrifice, and bravado of our nation's finest warriors, in their finest hours." --Admiral William H.

After inheriting a strategy aimed at imposing costs on the Soviets for their invasion and occupation of Afghanistan, Vickers transformed the covert campaign into an all-out effort to help the Afghan resistance win their war. More than any other American, he was responsible for the outcome in Afghanistan that led to the end of the Cold War.
