From Barnes & NobleTo build this definitive history of the U.S. Navy SEALs, American Gun co-author William Doyle and SEAL Team One author Dick Crouch requested and received full cooperation from the Navy Special Warfare community. That unprecedented access enabled them to obtain exclusive interviews with more than one hundred special operators and research through thousands of pages of declassified government documents. Consequently, this often thrilling, unique history is must reading for military history enthusiasts and the perfect accompaniment to the PBS special which shares its title. (P.S. Doyle co-produced the PBS documentary, which premieres on Veteran's Day, November 11th.)
