In this book, based on field work undertaken in Afghanistan itself and through engagement with postcolonial theory, Bojan Savic critiques western intervention in Afghanistan by showing how its casting of Afghan natives as “dangerous” has created a power network which fractures the country – in echoes of 19th and 20th century colonial powers in the region. Savic also offers an analysis of how and by what means global security priorities have affected Afghan lives.

An insightful and in-depth account of the author s service with the British Army in India and his part in the First Anglo-Afghan War, "The Campaign in Afghanistan "narrates how the author attended military academy, obtained a commission in the 31st Regiment of Foot, and travelled to India before going on to describe regimental life. In 1842 the regiment was dispatched to Afghanistan, where there was a popular uprising against the British occupation. The Kabul garrison had been evacuated and almost all of its members were killed before they reached India; the Jellalabad garrison was under siege. Despite the perilous and inhospitable nature of the Afghan terrain, Lieutenant Greenwood and the 31st Foot were part of the force which relieved Jellalabad and rescued British prisoners in Kabul before returning safely to India. This personal account of the campaign describes what it was really like to be on the front line in one of Britain s colonial wars."

In Embassies Under Siege, eyewitnesses present nine representative crises in vivid detail, examining the recurring challenges posed to diplomatic missions. The authors, all career Foreign Service officers, provide more than just frightening firsthand accounts of vulnerable people facing great peril. They also suggest useful lessons for protecting diplomatic personnel abroad. Many of these suggestions have already been implemented, and as old problems continue and new crises develop, the lessons learned from these cases prove invaluable. Through stories of great physical courage, professionalism, and resourcefulness, Embassies Under Siege paints a clear picture of the unique type of individual serving in the Foreign Service today.

In December 2007, Stephen Grey, a Sunday Times reporter, was under fire in Afghanistan as British and US forces struggled to liberate the Taliban stronghold of Musa Qala. Taking shelter behind an American armoured Humvee, Grey turned his head to witness scenes of carnage. A car and a truck were riddled with gunfire. Their occupants, including several children, had died. Taliban positions were pounded by bullets and bombs dropped on their compounds. A day later, as the operation continued, a mine exploded just yards from Grey, killing a British soldier. Who, he wondered in the days that followed, was responsible for the bloodshed? And what purpose did it serve? A compelling story of one military venture that lasted several days, Operation Snakebite draws on Grey's exclusive interviews with everyone from private soldiers to NATO commanders. The result is a thrilling and at times horrifying story of a war which has gone largely unnoticed back home.
