4.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of Information-Not Especially Well Organized, February 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Venice (Great Cities Through The Ages) (Hardcover)
Who would have ever thought that an island community founded by Roman refugees would go on to become a powerful republic that would endure for a thousand years. It is a great story that well educated children should learn. "Venice-Great Cities Through the Ages" does a very good job of getting out the basic facts about the Venetian Republic. It is written at a middle school level and covers a lot of ground. What I do not like about this book is its organizational structure and its illustrations. Instead of simple chapters, information is broken down into series of disjointed paragraphs. The illustrations are also lackluster. Piero Ventura's "Venice" is a much better book for elementary school age children.
