By Jay Taylor
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 978-1-4490-6207-1
Pages: 194
Published: February 2010

Point of Aim, Point of Impact, is one man's recollection of his Vietnam experience. That young man was a Marine Corps Scout Sniper and the book addresses many issues of the Scout Snipers and Vietnam Veterans both during the war and present day. It is not a book that glorifies war or weaves a Hollywood script around lies and half truths. In telling the story of one young Marine Sniper it attempts to deal with the real issues which evolved from the traumatic experiences of killing people and watching friends being maimed and killed.

Point of Aim, Point of Impact is a must read for all Veterans from WWII to today's returning warriors as well as their family and friends. The book has received rave reviews from Midwest Book Reviews, fellow veterans, and family members of veterans.

Caoimhe Duggan - Author of The Book You Never Knew You Needed - Interview
Author Q&A What inspired you to write your first book? The inspiration for my first book stemmed from an observation I made on my very first year at work after graduation: some people received mentoring while others did not. In law firms, for instance, secretaries and administrative staff received little to no mentoring, apart from occasional training sessions. As a young professional, this disparity was disheartening, making me feel as if certain
