Summary: Buy it, read it, and - if they're good - pass it on to the children
Comment: This is an excellent history book, the sort I wish I'd had 30 years ago. Not just dates and battles and important people, but information on how the ordinary people lived, what they wore, what work they did, how events affected them, the builings...... Lots of very innformative pictures. And lots of 'asides' on historical figures whom I'd heard of, but didn't know exactly why they were important, with just enough information on each for me to gauge whether to do further research. I've given copies of this book to three youngsters in the target age group and their parents have all reported back that their offspring loved the book.

Summary: Highly recommended
Comment: I am a little older than the intended readership, but since receiving this book I have turned to it daily to fill in the gaps left by school history lessons, or simply to dip into a previously unknown period of history. The comprehensive, unpatronising treatment of the past is neither too scholarly to gloss over the gory (and fascinating) details, nor too hurried as to miss out important facts. It is extremely well written, and each page is filled with the most eye-catching and informative illustrations and photographs. I would think this excellent book is a must-have for any child (or adult) who would like to learn more about Britain's past.
