Despite being old , there is plenty of interesting information about World War 1.

I really liked this book because I learned so much about the war and yet wasn't all boring facts. Usually war books are just a bunch if facts with boring photos, but not this book. Snyder did a superb job with this book and how perfectly she put the photos with the details and the fun facts. I would definitely recommend this book to all ages but could be graphic to young toddlers.
