The sniper is probably the most feared specialist warrior and the most efficient killer on the battlefield. Endlessly patient and highly skilled, once they have you in their crosshairs, your chances of survival are slim.
This revised edition of Out of Nowhere provides a comprehensive history of the sniper, giving insights into all aspects of their lives; their training tactics, equipment and the psychology of sniping are examined in the context of the major wars of modern times – including the American Civil War, both world wars, the Vietnam War and the conflict in Afghanistan.
First-hand accounts from veteran snipers demonstrate their skill and extraordinary courage and show why they are still such a vital part of any war.
