'Each story is relatively short and written in straightforward language, making the books accessible to young people with low reading staminaThe stories themselves are gripping with plenty of action... I would recommend these for school libraries...' -- School Librarian Journal 20021201 'For many children, narrative is one of the strong attractions of history and here it is used to good effect to demonstrat the varied ways in which individuals contributed to the war effort.' -- School Librarian Journal, Winter 2002 20021201
