Chris Kyle

Francotirador Chris Kyle American Sniper - Spanish edition

Publisher Marketing: From 1999 to 2009, U. S. Navy Seal Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. 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, speaks openly about the strains of war on their family. Kyle's masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time."
