Reviews
This book is very good but I given it a 4 because it doesn't have everything in it has most periods of history but not all. it has a lot of information on the British Empire so it would be good for a Victorian project at school. I also picked this book because it is written by my leader Sir Tony Robinson as he runs a group of people that teach kids to be Archeologists called YAC (young archeologists club)
