Why read it?

1 author picked The Long-Range War as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Contains the history, along with exceptional pictures and illustrations, of Army and Marine snipers in Vietnam. Along with history it details the fielding of rifles, scopes, and suppression devices. More technical than “war story” it provides an excellent base document on which to build an education on long range shooting by American soldiers and Marines in the Vietnam War.

From Michael's list on snipers in the Vietnam War.
