World: Hugh Hewitt Interview of Jake Tapper Author of "The Outpost"

Hewitt devoted his entire broadcast to hearing the story behind "The Outpost."

The book gives a ground level view of the battle at Combat Outpost Keating in Afghanistan. But beyond the battle itself, Tapper delves into the people there - those who survived and those who didn't - and the people back home who love them. He also went into the history of the base leading up to the fateful battle. A story of incredible valor and infuriating decision making that left those troops in such a precarious location.

Here is a video clip from Jake Tapper on his book tour launch explaining how he got started on writing the book.
