What are you anons reading, and what books do you recommend? Anything Jow Forums related from stuff like American Sniper to detailed reference books. What’s on Jow Forums‘s shelf?
I just finished pic related. Pretty good book, not much technical data at all but kinda neat to see the insider story, but the author is definitely a faggot grabber.

Jayden Morales
Not him, but
Self-defense from a dude who has lived intimately familiar with violence.
Carter Walker
Thanks Satan, I’ll add it to my need to buy list. Also looking at some AK books and maybe something on Yugoslavian and or Serbian Small Arms cause Arkan did nothing wrong.
Henry Cruz
Pretty good if you are planning to go into some of the armed forces
Owen Ramirez
>self-defense
More on “violence”. Basically the book tried to be. David Grossman is a hack and that book is full of shit.

>Kalashnikov the Man the Machine
Never heard of it and I can't find a cover.
Grim Reaper is pretty good, lots of reference stuff. I'd say get this one as well, the Kalashnikov Encyclopaedias (Roodhorst), and the newer Vickers Guide.
Grayson Wilson
Bumping with a recommendation.
This is a cold war gone hot book focusing on the ground war. I personally found it much better than team yankee and almost as good as the land sections of red storm rising.
Main story focus is on a Chieftain crew and the british/german sector, there are also sub stories following an M1 and a group of SAS soldiers behind soviet lines.
Written by an ex tank crew-member so there's plenty of detail regarding tank life, operation and tactics.
It'a not a very long book but it feels just right for the pace. unlike team Yankee the combat is easy to follow and doesn't get confused by too many characters and units.
Grayson Garcia
Basically a collection of interviews of USAAF pilots, mostly bomber ones but with a few fighters mixed in. I'm about halfway in and so far it's mostly about operations in Africa, Europe, with a bit of Vietnam and Korea for some of the more long-lasting pilots. It also has a bit of unbiased information about the experiences of pilots in POW camps.
It really gets that panicked post-Pearl Harbor mobilization right, there's a lot of stuff about pilots being forced into combat without training and oversight just due to how rushed everything was. I recommend it.
Nolan Reyes
What are some must reads by the founding fathers?
Blake Johnson
Not a founding father, but the biography of Theodore Roosevelt is a must read.
Josiah Bennett
Read through pic related and I've gotta agree. There's a lot of "muh vidya killers," a lot of "muh adrenaline superpowers," and even some bad theology at the end. Grossman is a hack.
Levi Green
Sorry user I mean the arms and the man. I wanna grab the vickers guide and the roodhurst book as well, gonna be some spensive bois
Asher Jones
>roodhurst book
It's 3 huge books. Now that it's not really available stateside anymore, yeah. The shipping from Norway is going to be fairly steep (about 60€).
Here's a couple more harder to find Kalashnikov books that I'd recommend.
Andrew Murphy
Christopher Howard
Been quite a while since I added any new Jow Forums books. I've got a small collection but it consists of
Patriots
One Second After
Lights Out
The Road
Going Home, Surviving Home, Escaping Home, Forsaking Home and Resurrecting Home
Juan Russell
Ryan Rivera
Ulysses, need to finish the meme trilogy
Joshua Evans
The poor man’s James Bond and expedient homemade firearms.
Kevin Miller
All of the eXile staff wrote good shit.
I recommend the War Nerd’s translation of the Illiad.
Jack Walker
Good stuff. Clancy's work is always fun
Maybe check out The Gun by C.J. Chivers. Does a good job of detailing the evolution and development of automatic firearms, culminating with the creation of the AK-47.
Caleb Carter
Anyone read this? Was recommended to me by my history professor. It's about the British Burma campaign during WW2
