Review: Full color and tons of fun - This is a great book for any history buff. Light hearted and grusome history for the nine-year-old in all of us... with a knowing tone and great information about the world presented in a visually appealing manner. My kid, who is obsessed with the TV show and the regular series, was delighted when Santa brought this!
Review: Entertaining, horrible, informative--perfect for kids. - Want to get a 9-year old to giggle while reading about history on the weekend. This is the book. It's not clean and G-rated, because history wasn't either. It is full of some of the best and worst parts of humankind, and it doesn't hold back in telling those stories. A very good addition to this British series, which is always fun and surprising.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great history book for all ages
*by P***S on February 26, 2014*

Was this book banned in the US hence my copy being a former library book? The illustrations, dialogue and text are totally enchanting and funny -- if gory -- making the history lessons memorable. The humor is British. Kids loved it and the fold out in the back of horrible people in history was worth the price alone.
