About this product

Product Information

The Sunday Times bestseller It takes a tough mindset to be a successful sniper, to be able to dig in for days on your own as you wait for your target, to stay calm on a battlefield when you yourself have become the target the enemy most want to take out. Craig Harrison has what it takes and in November 2009 in Afghanistan, under intense pressure, he saved the lives of his comrades with the longest confirmed sniper kill - 2,475 metres, the length of 25 football pitches. In this unflinching autobiography Craig catapults us into the heat of the action as he describes his active service in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, and gives heart-stopping accounts of his sniper ops as he fought for his life on the rooftops of Basra and the barren hills of Helmand province. Craig was blown up by an IED in Afghanistan and left battling severe PTSD. After his identity was revealed in the press he also had to cope with Al Qaeda threats against him and his family. For Craig, the price of heroism has been devastatingly high.

    A soldier telling the truth about war

    Great storyline and really well written. It keeps pulling you into the reality of war and the aftermath that we never see or hear from the media. A great book that you’ll find hard to put down.

    WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A SNIPER WHO SURVIVES

    You do get a very good awareness of what personal qualities are needed to become a successful sniper. This book details how long it took the British Army to realise the incredible impact a sniper can have on backing up/covering patrols and in disrupting enemy patrols and operations. He details what operations he did, the long shot that is/was a world record distance shot then his disillousion with how he was treated by the Army when, after the uncourted media fame, his life (and that of his family) was at risk and he felt abandoned. This book explains the use to an army of good snipers, gives some history of sniping and, like I say, the personal qualities (especially incredible patience and planning) required to be a sniper - who survives!

  • Absolute brilliant read and worth every penny I can relate to the book as I’m a retired 23 year infantry soldier.
