I am a daughter of a Vietnam Vetern and I am so proud of my father's role as a med tech pulling our guys out of combat zones with the help of snipers and helicopter gunners. Chris Kyle was an amazing person, soldier and Family man. Please read this book and you will agree. To carry on his and his friend's work with PTSD is crucial for our vets. Please Thank our Vets cuz without them there wouldn't be a USA as we know it. Taya is doing wonderful work that needs our support also. I am posting this with full approval of my husband a Disabled Vet, our grown daughters, and our entire family, Kem R.
I really enjoyed this book not only because of the news and movie but because it gives you an in depth look at who this amazing person really was before the media knew him as the American sniper just to let you know what a true hero and patriot that Kyle really was and how his life was tragically taken, I recommend this book along with the autobiography to anyone who is looking for a good read and for a better understanding of a true gentleman and patriot.
Banal and repetitive writing. It reads as if it were dictated verbally with many repeated sentences, or assembled as a set of notes with no additional editing. Sections of the text, particularly the section about Chris' murder appear to have been copied from or into Wikipaedia. Most of the positive reviews were as a result of what the reader thought of Chris Kyle the man and his exploits, not how his life has been presented by Rick Laird.In addition, the author did very little analysis of the character motivation behind the person. How did a devout Christian reconcile his profession with his faith with no apparent turmoil? How did Chris' childhood relationships and experiences shape his views on the military and the campaign in Iraq? Why did the company he set up sue his estate and imply his marriage would have failed if he had still lived? Mr Laird missed an opportunity to give a third party perspective on Chris that would not have presented in the autobiography. Then his contribution would have added value to the story.Indeed, how unfortunate it is so many people seem to want to cash in on Chris' fame, including, I believe, this author.Incidentally,I should also note that I bought this book in error thinking it was the autobiography.
Having already read the autobiography I was interested to see if this biography would add anything more to the story of Chris Kyle. I was severely disappointed. The author jumped from topic to topic seemingly not knowing how to connect a concise thought. This made reading the book VERY difficult for me. There were quite a few instances in which I had to go back & re-read portions because I would get lost as to where in the time line of Kyle's life the subject being discussed actually took place....that's how much the author jumped around. I am glad that I did not pay for the book...I would've been even more disappointed.
I downloaded this book by accident one day trying to buy the autobiography by Chris Kyle himself. After reading for a short time I could see that the righting style was on par with an eighth grade essay. I only read for about 20 minutes and my reader said I was 40% complete. Very dissapointed!
I heard about the American Sniper but wasn't my type of book or movie. As I'm more into romantic girly flicks. Since Kyle's wife has written her book I have become more interested in the real kids action pack person. Before I read her book , I thought it best to first read something on this.I am so happy that I ordered this book as it is informative and quick reading.Now I will read his widows book. My prayers are with Kyle's wife and family.
I would give more stars in my review if possible. Chris Kyle is honorable in many ways! His wife also deserves a lot of credit. She gave and sacrificed in many ways while her husband served his country. May God bless the family of Chris Kyle! He was a humble man who only wanted to honor and protect those he served with.
Great book.... what a man! Could not put it down. Makes you appreciate all the more what these Soldiers did for this Country. My heart goes out to their family for their loss.
