Sebastian Junger wrote Perfect Storm and a new one, "Fire", vaguely described by someone as: Few writers have been to so many disparate corners of the globe as has Sebastian Junger; fewer still have provided such starkly memorable evocations of characters and events. From the murderous mechanics of the diamond trade in Sierra Leone to the logic of guerrilla warfare in Afghanistan and the forensics of genocide in Kosovo, this new collection of Junger's nonfiction will take you places you wouldn't dream of going to on your own.

Another author, Richard Reeves appeared on Today show yesterday. He also had a lot of knowledge about Afghanistan and Middle Eastern countries, and expressed concerns about the major obstacles our troops will encounter.
