An exceptional read.
Chris' experiences during his childhood and later on (after High School) not only formed his persona, but those experiences helped to mold him for the life of a Navy Seal Sniper.
What I didn't like about this book is all the information in the first three chapters (it was boring) however this information did set the tone for his experiences in the field, as a sniper.
There were several parts of the book that helped the reader in understanding of Chris' life. His wife, Taya, adds her thoughts during critical phases of Chris' experiences with the Navy Seals and she also speaks of the way he dealt with the presures (self imposed as they were) of being a Navy Seal Sniper.
Both Chris and Taya are painfully honest in their comments in this book.
Unfortunately we will never read another book written by Chris and his passing will leave a big hole in America's life.
Four stars is my rating, only because of the first three chapters, which I thought were boring.
