Praise for the Great Battles for Boys series: This book should be in school libraries everywhere. --Hall of Fame Top 10 Amazon Reviewer This is a wonderful simple book that covers many complex ideas which are not in high school history books. The stories are written in such a way as to captivate the audience and not make history teachers go crazy due to historical inaccuracies. 5 Stars, G on Amazon I know a book is a sure-fire winner with my boys when they read it more than once. My boys have had fun telling me about their most memorable battles. They are inspired by the brave men who fought and inspired to want to be brave men who make an impact. 5 Stars, Heather H on Amazon
