In the chaos of the combat zone, there are the living, the dead, and the Ghost.

In the ongoing Iraq conflict, there are no battle lines, no direct offensives, no ground won or lost??just the daily fight against an enemy who hits and runs, hides and sneaks. If the enemy shows himself, it?s only for a moment. But for a Marine Sniper, that is all that is needed.

Readers now have the opportunity, from these warriors? perspective, to peer into the killing zone through a telescopic lens, down the barrel of a high-powered rifle, and into the very heart of the enemy. The training, the techniques, and the steel will necessary to survive as a sniper are all described in vivid detail.

Charles Henderson also delves into the core of the enemy??the maniacal ideology, and the tactics that have sown so much violence in Iraq??and how they are all vulnerable to a single bullet from a Ghost.

A page turning read

This book will make you sweat like you are in the jungle with Hathcock, his bravery, the tactics, the killing of he NVA officer, alone as he slowly crawls thru the jungle and grass, day after day far behind enemy lines! his surprise sniping attack on NVA regulars as they crossed a berm in the middle of a rice field, his ingenuity using the 50 cal machine gun as a sniper rifle with one round fired each time. This man beat the NVA at their own game, he kicked their butts, showed them that Americans produce fighting men who are fearless and aggresive, life takers. God bless the corp and God rest Hathcock, you have paid your dues here on earth. well written book, the author is a man who knows how to write, from another writer.

Startling story of a great war hero

This is a superb biography of Sergeant Carlos Hathcock, Marine sniper, from his enlistment to the brutal end of his second tour in Vietnam. Readers shall be as impressed as me when they remind the chase of the North Vietnamese woman sniper and the killing of a vietcong general. Many stories are so astounding that they stand better than any fiction.
The man was a great warrior. He knew well how to fight and protect the ideals of his country. Excellent.


Great read

I was in the Marine Corp in the late 60s but was fortunate not to make a tour in Nam. Lost quite a few good friends over there.

Saw this book mentioned on the web and couldn't wait to get it. A great moving story of someone we should be grateful to. Many men and women sacrificed their lives for us back here. Just hope people appreciate it.

Couldn't put it down. Well written and enlightening.

A truly great story.

This is probably the best book about snipers I have ever read. I loved it. The writing is excellent, and nicely discriptive. A great book if you want to know some things about snipers and what it means to be a sniper.


Delighted and Impressed!

This has to the story of one of the bravest and most dedicated soldiers of all time. This book tells of the dedication to an art form that is need these days more than we care to realize. Not only the story of a soldiers efforts, but also of his struggle with illness and his own actions on the field of battle.
