COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Fascinating history, but writing lacking submitted by ashahly on August 13, 2019, 4:47pm The research and historical presentation of this book is fascinating, but the clunky and juvenile writing make for a slightly disappointing read. Rated as a "Teen," (which I discovered after the fact), it seems geared towards the *very* young teen with little historical knowledge and a more intermediate reading comprehension.
