12 Strong: The Declassified True Story of the Horse Soldiers

Doug Stanton

The New York Times bestselling “spellbinding true-life story” of a United States Special Forces team deployed to the war-ravaged Afghanistan mountains in the weeks immediately following 9/11.

The New York Times bestselling “spellbinding true-life story” of a United States Special Forces team deployed to the war-ravaged Afghanistan mountains in the weeks immediately following 9/11, overcoming great odds to become heroes of our era.

In the weeks following the attacks of September 11, a small band of Special Forces soldiers secretly entered Afghanistan. Riding on horseback, they pursued the Taliban over the stark and mountainous Afghanistan terrain. After a series of intense battles, they captured the strategically essential city of Mazar-i-Sharif.

Previously published as Horse Soldiers, 12 Strong “is not just a battle story—it’s also about the home front. An important book”. A thrilling, inspiring tale of a group of men on horses who did the impossible and an incredible account of real life bravery and heroism in the face of insurmountable odds.
