This book investigates the complexities of modern urban
operations-a particularly difficult and costly method of fighting,
and one that is on the rise. Contributors examine the lessons that
emerge from a range of historical case studies, from
nineteenth-century precedents to the Battle of Shanghai;
Stalingrad, German town clearance, Mandalay, and Berlin during
World War II; and from the Battle of Algiers to the Battle for
Fallujah in 2004. Each case study illuminates the features that
differentiate urban operations from fighting in open areas, and the
factors that contribute to success and failure. The volume
concludes with reflections on the key challenges of urban warfare
in the twenty-first century and beyond.
