  • Description

    The death of Osama bin Laden is one of the most controversial and most debated topics in the Obama regime. No Easy Day is a first hand account of the raid that ended with the death of a man whose plots against America culminated in the deaths of thousands on September 11, 2001.

    Summary of the Book

    Under the shroud of midnight, US Navy SEAL Team Six raided the Waziristan Haveli, an upper class mansion in Bilal Town, Abbottabad, Pakistan. Their mission was dubbed Operation Neptune Spear and was one of the most crucial moves of the Obama regime. Their target was the most wanted man alive, a man that the United States of America was screaming to see dead for over ten years. That man was Osama bin Laden, the former leader of the terrorist group known as al-Qaeda and the man responsible for the attacks on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001. Bringing together excerpts from his youth and a first person account of what happened that day, Mark Owen reveals the story that the US Government refused to divulge. A story that reveals the raid and the events that followed in black and white.

    About the Authors

    Mark Owen is the pseudonym of a US Navy SEAL and member of the United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group who took part in Operation Neptune Spear which resulted in the death of Osama bin Laden. His identity has since been revealed as Matt Bissonnette who hails from Alaska. His involvement in the book has made him the subject of several investigations by the Department of Defense.

    Kevin Maurer is an American journalist. He has been pivotal in documenting US Military operations for over a decade, following the troops into the initial invasion of Iraq and spending ten weeks in Afghanistan.

    Read it nonstop, finished it in less than 9 hours

    Been eagerly waiting for this book, and on being delivered, pounced on it right away.

    I was hoping that it is not restricted to only the OBL operation, but that it would include their other operations, in this respect, it does not disappoint. In fact, the author had taken part in the rescue of the American captain from Somali pirates, which was still fresh in public memory. Even for the OBL operation alone, one would've brought the book. All the other operations definitely are an added bonus...

    REVIEW OF NO EASY DAY

    Fast paced, very action oriented, mostly objective and simple language makes the book gripping. Can be read in a day or two without the reader feeling stressed. Sustains interest through out and the descriptions and the pictures are evocative and educate the reader without seeing to instruct or become too technical.

    The reader lives out the life of the Navy SEAL and despite the fact that the main story is the final operation that eliminates Osama Bin Laden, at no place does the reader feel i...

    Must read

    Pick this up if you are interested in a tactical account of Operation Geronimo. The author traces his own career but describes a significant portion of the book to the planning, training and execution of the operation. In 2014 the SEAL who actually shot UBL has given a slightly different account, which has taken off some shine of this book. Nevertheless an important book and will remain a reference in coming years.

    Surprised

    A truly amazing read but am surprised that the author has decided to go ahead and publish his work despite the security threat. Hadn't his identity been comprised? This keeps intriguing me but, the flow in which he goes taking you through the life of a navy seal is simply superb. Life of a solider is never easy and that thought will be with you throughout as you read. Watch the movie ZERO DARK THIRTY after you read this book; you'll get a wholistic view of the entire mission which spanned acr...

    Review of No Easy Day

    'No Easy Day' is a very interesting book for people interested in Special Forces (SF) & Special Ops. There were lot of speculation about the raid on Osama Bin Laden's hideout by US Navy SEAL Team Six or DEVGRU. The book sets the record straight by revealing the Op. Neptune Spear.

    The book describes the life of US Navy SEAL through their training phase and operations. There are not lot of pages devoted to Op. Neptune Spear. The author has taken care not to reveal any operational details which...
