ExcellentBy Mom EI actually had to read this book for a class I was taking. I found the book to be interesting; easy to read; easy to understand and very comprehensive. I thought the many photos in the book gave faces to the horror I was reading about. The book itself is just plain beautiful. I would recommend this book as a good source of information for ages 14+. I was really very impressed by this book.
