Highly recommended July 17, 2008

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.
