Illustrations were chosen with great care and demonstrate the
profound effects of war on human life; for instance, one photo
depicts a sobbing baby sitting amid the rubble in the aftermath of
a bombing of a Shanghai train station. This series strikes the ideal
balance between a thorough and well-researched presentation of
history and one that is exciting and engaging.
VERDICT: An excellent resource.

Enhanced with reproduction and archival photos, these slim
but concise volumes focus on the causes of each war and, as the
series title suggests, the war’s impact on the U.S. Text-dependent
and research questions keep readers engaged in this informative
series.
