Customer Reviews

This is a very good book for factual information.

This book has many neat aspects that make reading it worth while. The book has 7 glossy overlays that let you see the inside of many ships throughout history from the H.M.S. Normandy, to one of the first subs. Although this book is more for younger readers I enjoyed it very much. Reading Level 4-6 grade but it is good book to leaf through and look at the highly detailed pictures.
