American Sniper written by Chris Kyle.
After watching movie I had to get out and get the book and read it. His life haunted my mind after the seeing the movie and did the same after I read the book.
A good biographer that fully captures Kyle's personality and it written in a conversational type of way that makes reading it easy. It also captures a perfect glimpse behind the closed doors of being a SEAL and how that job affects a person both positively and negatively. Kyle didn't shy away from showing how it affected it at home and in the field. It is a warts and all type of book. I don't read a lot biographies but this one was one of the best ones I've read. I also liked the few places where his wife interjected her thoughts into what was going on. My one critique of this book is that I wish it had had more of her voice throughout because it gave a good balance to this thoughts.
