Excellent book. Very well written and easily read. I have read several books on sniping and found some new information in this one. Based on author's previous books I thought it would be about military snipers, but surprisingly when I read this book I discovered it also covers law enforcement snipers. Starts before gun powder with archery and then moves forward thru history up to current conflict against terrorism. Chapters on recent events were a little short but that was the only disappointment in entire book. Has unique sections called "anatomy of shot" in which author examines one documented sniping incident. Also has interesting chapter on silencers or the correct technical term is "suppressor" per the book. Ends the book with interviews with 4 law enforcement snipers and 4 military snipers which were quite interesting as each had slighlty different views and opinions. Would definitely recommend this one to anyone interested in history of sniping.
