How Eleven Green Berets Forged a New Afghanistan
Eight years and over 900 fallen American soldiers later, the war in Afghanistan rages on. With the release of The Only Thing Worth Dying For, readers will finally get a look into the secret world of Special Forces soldiers operating in the thick of Taliban country just weeks after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Following Captain Jason Amerine and his ten Green Berets, Eric Blehm puts the reader on the ground alongside Hamid Karzai and his guerrillas as the men from two very different worlds unite to help overthrow the Taliban.
