Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 7-10--Two thorough, well-written overviews. Black-and-white archival photographs and/or reproductions appear on nearly every page; the texts are further broken up by sidebars and boldface topical divisions. The presentations are well documented and both have detailed indexes. Additional purchases for libraries with strong history collections, competent readers, and a need for research materials in these areas.
