Publisher's Synopsis

Frank Ledwidge analyses the cost - both financial and human - of Britain's involvement in the Afghanistan War. With the aid of interviews, on-the-ground research and countless Freedom of Information requests, he pieces together the enormous burden the Afghan intervention has placed on the shoulders of British soldiers and their families.
