NOW A BLOCKBUSTER MOTION PICTURE DIRECTED BY CLINT EASTWOOD—NOMINATED FOR SIX ACADEMY AWARDS, INCLUDING BEST PICTURE
From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. His fellow American warriors, whom he protected with deadly precision from rooftops and stealth positions during the Iraq War, called him “The Legend”; meanwhile, the enemy feared him so much they named him al-Shaitan (“the devil”) and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle, who was tragically killed in 2013, writes honestly about the pain of war—including the deaths of two close SEAL teammates—and in moving first-person passages throughout, his wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their family, as well as on Chris. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle’s masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time.

Troligtvis den bästa boken om kriget mot terrorn som inte bara ger en intressant inblick i livet som prickskytt utan även om utmaningarna med att kombinera soldatlivet med familjelivet.

Det är ju bra att han hela tiden berättar hur gudfruktig och ödmjuk han är. Annars skulle man kunna få för sig att han är en självgod översittare som anser att han borde få skjuta på allt som rör sig. Även fascinerande att han i stort sett inte missar ett enda skott i hela boken.
