The British Sniper – British & Commonwealth Sniping and Equipment 1915–1983 | Ian Skennerton | First Edition 1984 [USED – HCDJ – Very Good]

Ian Skennerton's comprehensive reference on British and Commonwealth sniping from the First World War through to the Falklands conflict — covering the development of sniping doctrine, tactics, training, equipment and rifles across nearly seven decades of British military service.

Skennerton is the standard authority on British and Commonwealth military small arms and edged weapons, and this book brings together the full history of the sniper role in British forces — from the improvised beginnings of the First World War, through the systematic development of specialist training and equipment in the Second World War, to the role of the sniper in post-war conflicts including Korea, Borneo and the Falklands.

At 266 pages with black and white illustrations throughout and a full index, it is a thorough and detailed reference. First edition, published 1984.
