Customer Reviews

Great photos and interesting info.

The book is short and simple, intended for grade schoolers, but the info is very interesting (for a tooth brush, chew up the end of a licorice root until it gets bristly and rub against teeth) and the photos are amazing (printed at half-page size so you can see them well - includes battle scenes). Even includes a recipe for hardtack crackers which the soldiers lived on. A great book to keep on hand for kids to look thru (and adults!).
