From the rear cover: "SILENCERS, SNIPERS & ASSASSINS reveals the functioning and use of small arms silencers - among the most devastating devices of intelligence agencies and hush-hush special-mission military units that strike at one another in the misty areas of espionage, clandestine operations and secret war. [The author has] uncovered previously unknown and shocking facts on these deadly accessories to terror and their use. He traces their development from their invention by Hiram Maxim in 1908 through their use by English and German snipers in WWI, American gangsters of the 1930s, Skorzeny's elite Nazi commando units, OSS agents and resistance groups in WWII; U.S. snipers during the Korean conflict; VC assassins in Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos; Mafia hit men; the West German Gehlen Intelligence Bureau; anti-Castro Cuban exiles; and U.S. Law enforcement agencies who employ them in a countersniper role."

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
