American Sniper

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

By: Chris Kyle, Scott McEwen, Jim DeFelice

Narrated by: John Pruden

NOW A BLOCKBUSTER MOTION PICTURE DIRECTED BY CLINT EASTWOOD—NOMINATED FOR SIX ACADEMY AWARDS, INCLUDING BEST PICTURE

From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. His fellow American warriors, whom he protected with deadly precision from rooftops and stealth positions during the Iraq War, called him “The Legend”; meanwhile, the enemy feared him so much they named him al-Shaitan (“the devil”) and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle, who was tragically killed in 2013, writes honestly about the pain of war—including the deaths of two close SEAL teammates—and in moving first-person passages throughout, his wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their family, as well as on Chris. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle’s masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time.

You made us proud! R.I.P

I want to thank his family for creating the circumstances that gave us this remarkable person. What a tragic end to an American Hero, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Interesting perspective on life of a seal

He holds nothing back, just lays I out there for all to read. You gotta commend him on this. Listen and learn.

Amazing

Made me cry and rethink my full gratitude for our servicemen. I love you guys and thank you soooo much for EVERYTHING... Chris you are greatly missed and a hero to all. Thanks bud...

Such an amazing American

He is an inspiring individual and one that young men should strive to be. He only died too young to make a greater impact on his life mission.
