Reviews

[Daniel Kukwa · Rating 4 out of 5]

Books that are supposedly designed for a more youthful reader can actually be the best kind of historical research tool. This magnificently drawn work provides just the right amount of historical detail to go with its beautiful & highly detailed illustrations. A fantastic research tool, for any age, for any assignment, and for the simple pleasure of enjoying historical goodness.
