American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S.Military History

Book Description:

Former U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle tells the story of his legendary career, from 1999-2009, during which time he recorded the most confirmed sniper kills in the history of the United States military, any branch, from 1776 to present.

Nicknamed The Legend by his fellow SEALS, Kyles service in Iraq earned him seven medals for bravery, including two Silver Stars. With the pacing of thriller, AMERICAN SNIPER vividly recounts Chief Kyles experiences at key battles, including the March on Baghdad (beginning of Iraq War), Fallujah, Ramadi, and Sadr City. He was shot in both the helmet and back; he witnessed the death of his two closest friends. After his combat deployments, Kyle became the SEALs chief sniper instructor, and he literally wrote the book on being a sniper: the Naval Special Warfare Sniper Doctrine, which is the first Navy SEAL sniper manual. Today he is the CEO of an international security and training corporation.
