I just got done reading the above book twice.

It is one of the best I have seen and its an english version. The author is known to me and has a very well respected Finnish Military sniper back ground. He also knew Mr. Hayha as a friend over several years. The book takes you into an area of Simos life that none have seen or heard of before. His personal thoughts about killing, shooting techniques and the rifle he used. He also goes into ammunition and shooting positions as stated by Simo.


The book is accurate, with good clear photos never seen before of this famous man and also has good detail.

ISBN: 978-952-5026-74-0

A few of my friends have ordered this book and they are impressed with the author and the book.
