"This is one neat book about snipers and their exploits." ~AMPS Indianapolis

"I think Gary Yee has done an exemplary job in World War II Snipers. It deserves to stand as both an achievement in telling the stories of those most secretive of soldiers, the snipers, whilst at the same time providing a unique historical insight into their tactical employment and effectiveness which is so frequently absent from post-war military histories. No reader buying this book should be disappointed for it deserves a place alongside the very best published work of its type." ~Martin Pegler, Former Senior Curator of Firearms at the Royal Armouries Museum

"If you like history and want to learn about snipers during WWII this is the book for you." ~IPMS/USA

“There have been many books written about snipers in WWII, but nothing ever like this superb book which has to be the most comprehensive of its type. If there is any aspect on sniping which is missing from this book, then it is not important. … Highly illustrated throughout, this book is for weapon collectors, shooters, … and general readers with an interest in the subject. There is nothing to criticise about this book and readers will find it compelling.'' ~Gun Mart

"This is not a dry technical history but a book that will keep the reader’s attention riveted as it has something for everyone interested in this subject." ~The GunMag
