Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First UK edition, first impression. Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped (£19.99), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 252pp. The wartime memoir of Lyudmila Pavlichenko (1916-74), is a remarkable document. Pavlichenko was World War II's best scoring sniper and had a varied wartime career that included trips to England and America. In June 1941, when Hitler launched Operation Barbarossa, she left her university studies, ignored the offer of a position as a nurse, to become one of Soviet Russia's 2000 female snipers. Less than a year later she had 309 recorded kills, including 29 enemy sniper kills. She was withdrawn from active duty after being injured. She was also regarded as a key heroic figure for the war effort. She spoke at rallies in Canada and the US and the folk singer Woody Guthrie wrote a song, 'Killed By A Gun' about her exploits. Her US trip included a tour of the White House with FDR. In November 1942 she visited Coventry and accepted donations of £4516 from Coventry workers to pay for three X ray units for the Red Army. She also visited a Birmingham factory as part of her fundraising tour. She never returned to combat but trained other snipers. After the war, she finished her education at Kiev University and began a career as a historian. She died in 1974 aged 58, and was buried in Moscow's Novodevichye Cemetery. Quite a scarce book.
