- Title
Small Armies, Big Cities: Rethinking Urban Warfare.

- Abstract
The article is a review of the book "Small Armies, Big Cities: Rethinking Urban Warfare" edited by Louise A. Tumchewics. The book explores the challenges and lessons of urban warfare, focusing on militaries with fewer troops engaged in counterinsurgency and major combat operations within the past 75 years. It examines logistical constraints, firepower issues, and military-civilian relations in urban operations. The review praises the book for its insights and case studies, but notes that it lacks discussion on support operations, drones, and space and cyber considerations. Overall, it is recommended for those interested in urban combat and suggests the need for a second volume expanding on these topics.
