Kill Shot
Enthralling stories and full-color photos of the world’s most elite and lethal marksmen
Of all the stories to come from the front lines of battle, none are more adrenaline-fired than the ones about deadly covert snipers. Kill Shot includes riveting accounts of the 15 most feared and honored snipers in history. Out of contact for days, deep behind enemy lines, these warriors stalked their target, gathered crucial intel, and dispatched the enemy under the most hostile conditions. Accompanied by full-color photos, the book lays down the thrilling tales of famed marksmen like Carlos Hathcock, whose 93 confirmed kills in the jungles of Vietnam made him a legend in the Marine Corps; Simo Häyhä, otherwise known as “The White Death,” a small Finnish woodsman who tracked and snuffed 542 Russian soldiers in deep snow; and Corporal Craig Harrison, who set a world record in Afghanistan with a kill shot from more than a mile-and-a-half away.
