Lieutenant Colonel Clewlow’s first-hand account provides a unique perspective on the conflict between Kosovo and Serbia during his deployment in 2008/09. Serving as NATO’s liaison within the Kosovo Protection Corps (KPC), he acted as a mentor and advisor during a transformative period in Kosovo’s history. Throughout his six-month tour, Clewlow faced numerous challenges while balancing his commitment to the people of Kosovo with his family life back in England. Immersed in the local culture and navigating an unpredictable security landscape, this memoir reveals the risks he took to engage with the country’s political elite. Caught between KFOR commanders and Kosovan Generals, he had to choose between following orders or supporting local leadership to benefit the KPC, risking his career and reputation. The narrative vividly illustrates the complexities of working for NATO in a politically charged environment, highlighting cultural clashes and the agendas of local politicians. This account offers a rare insight into NATO’s role in newly independent Kosovo, situated in Europe’s most unstable region. General The Lord Richards of Herstmonceux praises it as a fascinating exploration of post-conflict dynamics, while Pieter Feith calls it entertaining and gripping, making it a recommended read.
