Fun history!

This, like the other titles in the series, is a fun romp through a bit of history. Even though it is targeted at school aged children, there is plenty for an adult like me to appreciate. I highly recommend it!

Quick and Interesting

Although ment for kids, it's still entertaining and informative for adults. I also buy all his books in paperback.

9 year old loves Tony Robinson's books

My son loves these little books. It's too bad they aren't longer. Robinson does a good job of giving an overview of the subject of the book, and making it interesting with funny voices, sound effects, and little tidbits that delve in a little bit deeper (interesting quotes, etc.).

A classic, if detail empty, history comedy

As a history fan, I hold Rome dear to my heart. Hearing this book not only filled me with laughter, but a slight cut of envy. How come this guy can write ten times better than I can?
