American Sniper
Book description
Why read it?
1 author picked American Sniper as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
There are many books, some greatly fictionalized, claiming just who was the most effective USMC sniper in Vietnam. Although extremely brief, this book confirms just who was the top Marine sniper in the Vietnam War. Mawhinney had 103 kills. Unlike other snipers who have embellished their accomplishments, Mawhinney has remained modest and off the grid. He alone sits at the top of the list of "Marine snipers with the most kills."
From Michael's list on snipers in the Vietnam War.
