Richard Lowry’s New Dawn: The Battles for Fallujah is the first comprehensive history of two major U.S. combat operations in Fallujah in 2004. This ancient city in Al Anbar province forty miles west of Baghdad was the scene for both Operation Vigilant Resolve and Operation Phantom Fury.
Lowry spent years researching and writing his new campaign history. In addition to archival research, New Dawn is based upon the personal recollections of nearly 200 soldiers and Marines who participated in the battles for Fallujah, from the commanding generals who planned the operations to the privates who kicked in the doors. The result is a gripping, page-turning narrative of individual sacrifice and valor that also documents the battles for future military historians.
