Book Review: American Sniper

I read this book some while ago, and thought it was timely to refresh my notes and post the review now.  Since the film version of this story recently broke a box office record with its three-day Martin Luther King Jr/Civil Rights Day weekend opening, I figured... yeah, people might be interested.

Post-script: On February 12th of this year, I came to understand that Mr. Kyle, the sniper featured in the book reviewed above, had been senselessly killed around the same time I actually read the book.  The alleged killer was a mentally unbalanced individual, and the place was a Texas shooting range.  Though I had some problems at times with the book itself, it is a true loss to see a good man go in such a terrible manner.  God Bless his family, and may justice come to the assailant who laid him low.
