by John Ballard (Author)
The vicious urban battle for the insurgent-controlled city of Fallujah in November 2004 was a turning point in the ongoing counterinsurgency campaign in Iraq. It demonstrated the resolve of the Iraqi government to fight terrorists domestically, using both multinational and Iraqi forces, and its results included a returning population willing to vote in national elections held in January 2005. Ballard tells the story of the Fallujah campaign, beginning with the horrific deaths of the American Blackwater contractors in March 2004, and continuing through the battle, the painstaking reconstruction of the city, and the precedent-setting elections that followed. Based on first-person accounts, interviews, and official documents, this book gives readers rare insight into the significant actions and innovative techniques of the year-long fight for the city.
John R. Ballard is currently assigned to the office of the Secretary of Defense in the Pentagon. He commanded the Marine Corps' 4th Civil Affairs Group in Iraq during operations Iraqi Freedom and Al Fajr. He is Professor of Joint Military Operations at the U.S. Naval War College.
