One Shot, One Kill by Andy Dougan
A cultural and military history of the sniper since 1643, when the first shot was fired by a sniper during the battle for Litchfield in the English Civil War, to the present day.‘A rapid-fire account of the “most dishonourable and ungentlemanly” tactic in the practice of arms’ The Times
‘The Hunting of Man reminds us of the business of warIt isn't a regular military history but an intriguing, if dispiriting, history of precision killing. … Andy Dougan provides a very readable alternative history of conflict, charting the evolution of the marksman from an opportunist with a bow and arrow into a killer who can change history with a single shot’ Sunday Telegraph
