Four decades later, Helmand was again the focus of US efforts, as waves of Marines descended on the region. Little America tells the story of the long arc of American involvement, and of the campaign to salvage a victory in southern Afghanistan on Obama's watch. Has the war been worth the money and the bloodshed? Through vivid storytelling and on-the-ground reporting, Samuel Johnson Prize-winner, Rajiv Chandrasekeran sets out to find the answer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1408831201\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"xkio82-q6bt7o-csa903-mwgyth\" data-cel-widget=\"globalStoreInfoBullets_feature_div\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"edpIngress\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"edpIngress\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1408831201\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"ov1wvp-uqbde-qhlk37-esyvql\" data-cel-widget=\"edpIngress_feature_div\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" class=\"celwidget\" data-feature-name=\"richProductInformation\" data-csa-c-type=\"widget\" data-csa-c-content-id=\"richProductInformation\" data-csa-c-slot-id=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" data-csa-c-asin=\"1408831201\" data-csa-c-is-in-initial-active-row=\"false\" data-csa-c-id=\"mihhtj-12ueya-ngciry-gx7npy\" data-cel-widget=\"richProductInformation_feature_div\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"rich_product_information\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"p2iisb-wd4vmt-eed1ol-jmofst\" data-cel-widget=\"rich_product_information\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Best of used books","offers":[{"title":"Used","offer_id":44272842178817,"sku":"2T935WHDT-Used","price":399.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/4299\/0495\/products\/LittleAmerica.jpg?v=1670410019","url":"https:\/\/bestofusedbooks.com\/products\/little-america","provider":"Best Of Used Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
