Book
Trade paperback. Condition: Very good. viii, 324 page. Map. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Previous owner's stamp on half-title. Henry S. Bradsher was a correspondent for the Associated Press and the Washington Star. He was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for international reporting in 1972 and won the George Polk Award for Foreign Reporting in 1973. The Soviet-Afghan War lasted over nine years, from December 1979 to February 1989. Insurgent groups, known together as the mujahideen, fought a guerrilla war against the Soviet Army and the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan government. The mujahideen groups were backed primarily by the United States and Pakistan, making it a Cold War proxy war. Prior to the arrival of Soviet troops, Afghanistan's communist party took power after a 1978 coup, installing Nur Mohammad Taraki as president. Anti-government armed groups were formed, and by April 1979 large parts of the country were in open rebellion. The Soviet government staged a coup, killing president Amin and installing Soviet loyalist Babrak Karmal. Afghan insurgents began to receive aid and military training in neighboring Pakistan and China. The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) played a significant role in asserting U.S. influence in Afghanistan by funding military operations designed to frustrate the Soviet invasion of that country. CIA covert action worked through Pakistani intelligence services to reach Afghani rebel groups. The mujahideen waged guerrilla war in small groups operating in the almost 80 percent of the country that was outside government and Soviet control.
