Synopsis
This widely acclaimed and scrupulous account narrates the historical background and build-up to the civil war in which almost ten per cent of the Afghan population have died. New material documents the Soviet withdrawal of February 1989, and assesses the prospects for the beleaguered Najibullah regime as the Mujahideen threaten its city strongholds.
