American Sniper

American Sniper by Chris Kyle From 1999 to 2009 U.S. Navy
SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in
United States military history. The Pentagon has
officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the
previous American record was 109) but it has declined to
verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi
insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan
(“the devil”) and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle earned
legendary status among his fellow SEALs Marines and U.S.
Army soldiers whom he protected with deadly accuracy from
rooftops and stealth positions. Gripping and unforgettable
Kyle’s masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield
experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all
time. A native Texan who learned to shoot on childhood
hunting trips with his father Kyle was a champion
saddle-bronc rider prior to joining the Navy. After 9/11
he was thrust onto the front lines of the War on Terror
and soon found his calling as a world-class sniper who
performed best under fire. He recorded a personal-record
2100-yard kill shot outside Baghdad; in Fallujah Kyle
braved heavy fire to rescue a group of Marines trapped on
a street; in Ramadi he stared down insurgents with his
pistol in close combat. Kyle talks honestly about the pain
of war—of twice being shot and experiencing the tragic
deaths of two close friends. American Sniper also honors
Kyles fellow warriors who raised hell on and off the
battlefield. And in moving first-person accounts
throughout Kyles wife Taya speaks openly about the strains
of war on their marriage and children as well as on Chris.
Adrenaline-charged and deeply personal American Sniper is
a thrilling eyewitness account of war that only one man
could tell.From 1999 to 2009 U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle
