Product Description
"Riflecraft has been completely ignored since World War II," says Jeff Cooper, America's foremost rifle instructor. To remedy this situation, he took it upon himself to set down the fine art of the rifle before it was lost forever. In his no-holds-barred style, Cooper instructs you in everything you need to know about shooting the rifle, while entertaining you with tales of marksmanship, combat and big-game hunting.

 An excellent reference June 30, 2008
The Art of the Rifle by Jeff Cooper is a very good reference on practical rifle handling and marksmanship. I highly recommend this book. The chapter on the use of the sling made this book worth the (high) purchase price for me.
A Cooper gem January 18, 2008
Col. Cooper keeps it short, simple, and direct. As with his other books, no words are wasted or minced. This is a must have for anyone serious about rifle shooting at any level.

Wonderful stuff by the one of the great teachers of modern personal weaponry, the late Jeff Cooper. 100 pages of no-baloney poop on modern technique in riflery. Many pithy quotes on the subject.
"The posession of a good rifle, as well as the skill to use it well, truely makes a man the monarch of all he surveys. It realizes the dream of the Jovian thunderbolt, and as such is the embodiment of personal power."
Cooper is a gentleman of the old school. Warrior, historian, engineer and philosopher; he was a true national treasure in his day.

I bought this book for my boyfriend's Valentine's Day present. He is an avid reader, gun collector, and especially enjoys reading books written by Jeff Cooper. He enjoyed reading about Cooper's perspective on the rifle and how you should handle it.

Col.Cooper has put down to the ages what even the most casual shooter should know.The man has compressed a lifetime of rifle handling,marksmanship,common sense,and pure grade A instruction into a very easy to read and understand book.Here starts the very begining of a first class outdoorsmans library. Jeff Cooper has been there and done that and knows what he is talking about when it comes to proper positions and techniques.I am not to sure that there is another book of this caliber to be had anywhere.
