His 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 \u003cem\u003eal-Shaitan \u003c\/em\u003e(\"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, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their family, as well as on Chris. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle's masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time.\u003c\/p\u003e--MARCUS LUTTRELL, author of \u003ci\u003eLone Survivor\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William Morrow \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780062290793\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.40w x 1.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/02\/2015 pg. 6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e156925 \/ American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.3 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 17\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Chris Kyle, Scott McEwen, Jim DeFelice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42924805259445,"sku":"9780062290793","price":27.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_2f6bda96-6630-484c-971c-a6d2040ef042.jpg?v=1687838602","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/american-sniper-the-autobiography-of-the-most-lethal-sniper-in-us-military-history-9780062290793","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
