Gr 5â8âFilm stills and color photos of re-enactors, living-history sites, and ancient artifacts and locations are the centerpieces of these attractive introductions to the lives of warriors. Each topic (e.g., armor, weapons and battle tactics, living arrangements) is covered in a spread. The texts are largely composed of short paragraphs and "Fighting Talk" and "Combat Stats" text boxes that add definitions and more information. This format allows readers to learn about the warriors and their lives, but limits background facts about their native cultures. Unfortunately, there are no maps, which is a major weakness. While these books deliver little new information, their photo-based format and attractive layouts will draw browsers, especially boys, and encourage them to learn more, making them suitable as supplemental purchases.
