## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lots of history and a few fun designs
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2019*

Each chapter has a well written history and background and a set of plans for a catapult project.  Some are very simple and easy.  Some are more on the complex side.  It's not a definitive work, but it's a great place to start if you're looking to build something with your kids.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great for science.

    Machines of war
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2009*

I bought this book for my middle schooler as a present, and it has become the cornerstone of his research into building both a trebuchet and a catapult for science fair projects. There are some sketchy spots in the instructions where you have to read into the instructions to get proper locations for attachments, but nothing that can't be worked out with a little creativity. We will see what the finnished products are like. Overall though it is an easy read and enjoyable for my teen age son.
