The Longest Kill by Craig Harrison
A candid, first-person account of a British Army sniper’s life and service, tracing his route from training through deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan to the extraordinary long-range engagements that brought him public attention. The narrative blends technical detail about marksmanship, equipment and fieldcraft with stark battlefield anecdotes, while probing the moral and psychological costs of killing, the bond between comrades, and the complexities of modern counterinsurgency operations. Throughout, the author reflects on how combat shapes identity and the lasting personal consequences of a career spent observing and pulling the trigger at extreme distances.
