Join us on May 10 for a conversation with the 2022 Lionel Gelber Prize winner, Carter Malkasian.
His Lionel Gelber Prize–winning book, "The American War in Afghanistan: A History," is an account of America’s longest war. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of the country and its people, Carter Malkasian helps us to make sense of the complex political, military and societal forces that shaped the conflict over two decades. The American War in Afghanistan provides a truly comprehensive and compelling history of the U.S. intervention, from the early days of “Operation Enduring Freedom” to the Taliban’s resurgence as the U.S. forces pulled out of the country.
The Lionel Gelber Prize is awarded annually to the world’s best non-fiction book in English on foreign affairs that seeks to deepen public debate on significant international issues. The prize is presented by the University of Toronto’s Munk School of Global Affairs & Public Policy, in partnership with Foreign Policy Magazine.
