Eric Blehm, author of the award-winning *The Last Season*, is back with another true adventure story, *The Only Thing Worth Dying For*. Set in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, *The Only Thing Worth Dying For* chronicles the untold story of the team of Green Berets led by Captain Jason Amerine that conquered the Taliban and helped bring Hamid Karzai to power in Afghanistan. In the tradition of *Black Hawk Down*, *The Only Thing Worth Dying For* is, in the words of former Congressman Charlie Wilson (from *Charlie Wilson's War*), "the one book you must read if you have any hope of understanding what our fine American soldiers are up against in Afghanistan."
