The story quickly grabs you as Mila goes from a history student in Sebastapol when the German Army invades to an army sniper for her country. She leads up a squadron of snipers and teaches new recruits, in the meantime amassing 309 kills.
The second part of the book, Russia sends her to the USA to speak and gather support for the war effort from the Americans. There she meets Eleanor Roosevelt. Much to her chagrin her Moscow extends her tour to Canada and Britain, hoping to gain military support.
The story is based in fact. The is a reference list at the end of the book which includes the autobiography of Mila Pavlichenko.
