No True Glory: A Frontline Account of the Battle for Fallujah

Bing West

Bantam, 2006

Very accurate and explained things I didn't understand during the Battle.
This book is a very good book about the battle. I served with the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force during this battle during Operation Phantom Fury. After returning home and seeing this book I immediately bought it. When you are on the ground even with a high level of ...

We Were One: Shoulder to Shoulder with the Marines Who Took Fallujah

Patrick K. O'Donnell

Da Capo Press, 2007

Well done
I just read the book. I went back to post a review and was actually pissed off to read that one of the men died after the publishing of the book. I was "rooting" for him and all of these men the whole time. The book does have some typos in it. I teach HS and catch them ...

Among Warriors in Iraq: True Grit, Special Ops, and Raiding in Mosul and Fallujah

Mike Tucker

The Lyons Press, 2005

The guy at least tried...
Mike Tucker was just this goofy correspondent dude who shows up right before we get on the helicopters to raid outside Mosul for a big pile of mortar rounds. He misspelled my platoon leader's name, but hey, he was the only guy we had taking notes on that mission. At ...

After trying to understand for years even a small fraction of what is actually going on in Iraq and what happened in Fallujah, this book is a blessing. Not only is a it a great account to the things we all must know before we turn on CNN for the guide to our lives, ...

Iraq 1941: The battles for Basra, Habbaniya, Fallujah and Baghdad (Campaign)

Robert Lyman

Osprey Publishing, 2006

The past and present history
I had read a little bit about British operations in the Middle East during World War Two. Robert Lyman's book is far more information than I found on this little-known campaign. As a veteran of the current Middle East muddle, I found the 1941 maps of Baghdad ...

Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army [Revised and Updated]

Jeremy Scahill

Nation Books, 2008

NEEDED SOME SUNLIGHT ON THIS PRIVATE ARMY
Good job by the writer in bringing to our attention the seriousness of a growing private army, and once again, a possible crusade "under the banner of God." No doubt that the members are "tough guys" and trained and proficient, and can just about handle any ...

Fighting for Fallujah: A New Dawn for Iraq

John R. Ballard

Praeger Security International General Interest-Cloth, 2006

Best book on Fallujah to date
