A solid collection of case studies of urban operations. Covers a wide range of urban operations: traditional battles like Stalingrad and Aachen, asymmetric battles like Grozny and the Montoneros, coups like Panama City and Kabul, and non-military operations like disaster relief for Hurricane Andrew.
This book covers many of the complexities and considerations that go into fighting within and around a city. If you are looking for details at the company level and below for urban operations, this is NOT the book for you. However, if you want the bigger picture, this book is a great collection of case studies.
