Description
Chris Kyle served in the U.S. Navy Seals from 1999 to 2009 and during that time recorded the highest "body count" - i.e. the highest number of fatal hits - in American military history. The Pentagon officially credits him with 160 targeted liquidations. In this haunting autobiography, the Texas native, who learned to shoot as a child on hunting trips with his father, tells the story of his extraordinary career. After September 11, 2001, he was sent to the front lines in the war on terror and found his calling as a sniper a short time later. Tough and honest, Kyle talks about the dark side of war and the brutal craft of killing. His wife Taya has her say in moving interludes in which she describes how the war affected not only their marriage and children, but also her husband.
"Sniper" is the psychogram of a state-legitimised death shooter and a riveting eyewitness account of war that only a man can tell.
