Nonfiction: Battle Stations! Fortifications Through the Ages


Any kid who is interested in military history or architecture will want to take a look at this informative book. Densely packed with information, this 32 page volume covers defenses through the ages. Find out how the Romans defended their hilltop cities, and how the Great Wall of China was built. More modern defenses include continental defense systems (like Star Wars) and oceanfaring fortresses (battleships). This book is a great pick for grade 4-8's who have a keen interest in war and weapons.
