Book Review: Manhunt by Peter Bergen

Even though I have read three books on Taliban/ Al Qaeda/ Afghanistan already, "Manhunt" stood out as an extremely entertaining thriller which had the pages turning on its own. This is absolutely the best Bin Laden/ Al Qaeda/ Terrorism book that I have read (so far).

Peter Bergen peppers the book with fly-on-the-wall situations such as conversations between and the events of Osama's, George Bush's and Obama's inner circles. He chronicles the exact location, verbiage and even hand gestures of the various characters in the drama that ensued after 9/11.

If you are looking to understand how the animal called Bin Laden was captured and killed, "Manhunt" is THE book to read. Highly recommended.
