One Shot One Kill

Great book on the subject, from the best of the best. This book pulls you in and wont let go and while it is Non Fiction, it reads like a high class novel. These are real people with real life experiences and expertise and evaporated some of the myths I had seen on the video documentaries on the same subject.

I enjoyed this one. The authors have given us a good overview of this history of the sniper in war. If of course would be a mistake to to place this book with some of the other somewhat dry accounts of military history. This is a very readable book, lots of action, lots of insight yet sneeks in some very nice historical facts. It makes history more alive. It is also the story of some very brave and remarkable men. Recommend this for a nice fast read that is very much a page turner.

One Shot - One Kill talks about the history and development of the sniper division. Not that long ago, snipers were looked down upon before as being cowards because they hid. Yet over time people began to realize how desperately snipers were needed. So instead of like before just taking men who scored well on marksmanship men are now being trained in the art of sniping. The book tells the stories of some of the things that happened to veteran snipers. It gives you in depths look at the mind and happenings of a sniper. I believe this was an all around good book, and highly recommend it to fellow readers of historical and military books. I recommend this book because when the men are telling there stories I almost feel as if I am there and am living it myself. It is well written and an easy read.

One shot one kill is a terrific book for those who enjoy reading the experiences of snipers from all parts of history.It gives amazing accounts from World War II and the Vietnam War among others.It's an especially good book because the authors have a huge base of knowledge on the subject and have an effective way of explaining the circumstances in which the snipers in this book preformed their duties.Again a terrific book that will make one appreciate the art of sniping.

Both awesome and tragic. As close as you can come to crawling on your stomach for hours in the hot sun, tasting the grass, feeling the bites of ants while experiencing the thrill of hunting the enemy. You'll never regret reading this book.

The art of sniping from the American Revolution to Korea then to Vietnam. The best of the best are portrayed in this easy to read novel. For all of those who have read Marine Sniper this is a must read. Snipers from Carlos Hathcock to Jim Land tell their story in this fast paced book. It is very informative and explains each situation and the art of sniping. It gets my seal of approval, and is a must read.
