Through the Crosshairs A History of Snipers Tapa blanda - 2006

de Andy Dougan

Información de la editorial

In Through the Crosshairs, Andy Dougan traces the history of the sniper from the first instance of strategic shooting during the English Civil War, to the sharp-shooters in the jungles of Vietnam, and shows how the sniper, while once a pariah in the eyes of his fellow troops, has evolved into the ideal soldier for modern warfare. Dougan identifies the great marksmen of each era and explains the circumstances in which their reputations were established. From the gunman who chose not to fire on a retreating George Washington during the Revolutionary War, to the "white stocking" snipers of Chechnya, Through the Crosshairs provides a fascinating look at the marksmen and women who have taken up the gun to expert and deadly effect.

Primera línea

The city of Lichfield in Staffordshire nestles in rural tranquillity in the very heart of England, just under twenty miles north-east of the sprawling conurbation that Birmingham has become.
