He is the deadliest American sniper ever, called "the devil" by the enemies he hunted and "the legend" by his Navy SEAL brothers . . . From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the previous American record was 109), but it has declined to verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle earned legendary status among his fellow SEALs, Marines, and U.S. Army soldiers, whom he protected with deadly accuracy from rooftops and stealth positions. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle's masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time. A native Texan who learned to shoot on childhood hunting trips with his father, Kyle was a champion saddle-bronc rider prior to joining the Navy. After 9/11, he was thrust onto the front lines of the War on Terror, and soon found his calling as a world-class sniper who performed best under fire. He recorded a personal-record 2,100-yard kill shot outside Baghdad; in Fallujah, Kyle braved heavy fire to rescue a group of Marines trapped on a street; in Ramadi, he stared down insurgents with his pistol in close combat. Kyle talks honestly about the pain of war--of twice being shot and experiencing the tragic deaths of two close friends. American Sniper also honors Kyles fellow warriors, who raised hell on and off the battlefield. And in moving first-person accounts throughout, Kyles wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their marriage and children, as well as on Chris. Adrenaline-charged and deeply personal, American Sniper is a thrilling eyewitness account of war that only one man could tell.
1/17在亚马逊上面买书达到获赠指定书一本,我选了这本。 2/4今天百度上、wiki上就有关于他已于2/2被战友枪击身亡的消息。 怎么回事? 是美国人太容易有战争心理创伤?还是对于心理创伤的报道和关注比我国早而且多?他是杀戮英雄,用射击训练的方法来治疗同伴的心里阴影是否...
评分没有死在敌人的手里,却死在同袍的枪口下。战场上数次死里逃生,退伍后在靶场被有心理创伤的老兵射杀,大概是上帝收回了他在战场上的好运气吧。 另:翻译太渣不忍直视,Humvee翻译成亨维吉普,译者你是有多缺乏常识?
评分如果不是作者去世了,我不会去标记想读这本书。 如果不是亚马逊提醒我再不买足数目就要把我的银卡资格取消,我应该也不会去买这本书。 没有想到在今年这个我纸质书读得那么少的时刻,居然最快最先读完的是这本自传。 出于对死者的尊重和书的真实性吧,打了四星。没有太过于...
评分以前看过lone survivor 也是一本让我着迷的书 特别喜欢这样的传记。 听说作者前几天在打靶场被一个创伤后压力心理障碍症的美国大兵干掉,死于自己一直保护的人手里有点。。。让人无语啊
评分因为这个人死了,所以我买了这本书,这个人死在和平的环境里,对他的身份真是一种悲剧(如果不算讽刺的话),我在翻着这本书的时候,看到他妻子的一段话:“身在战场,克里斯写了好多封信,如果自己不幸牺牲,他想把这些信寄给我和儿子……但是重要的是人都死了,要信还有何用...
尼玛浪费钱啊!写得这么松散,一点不High!跟小学生写郊游似的,美国人民真喜欢这书还是为了支持老兵生活而已啊?
评分看完真是對德州人產生了謎之好感啊哈哈哈
评分No need to let whining sissy coward to know what is the warrior spirit. Let those who sacrificed rest in peace and respect their valor. RIP Marc Lee, Ryan Job, Michael A. Monsoor & Chris Kyle.
评分i see why Clint Eastwood would make a film out of it
评分Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? ” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” (Isaiah 6:8)—— A true American hero. A legend.
