32 pp. | Capstone | August, 2016 | Library ISBN 978-1-5157-2551-0 $27.99 | Ebook ISBN 978-1-5157-2557-2
(4) 4-6 Edge Books: History Hunters series. This series provides brief surveys of ancient civilizations. In each book, double-page spreads focus on an aspect of culture, politics, military, home life, etc. The layout--with its many illustrations, background colors, bold vocabulary words, and fonts--is eye-catching without being distracting. The unfortunately named "Deadly Secrets" guessing game in several sections adds an interesting challenge, but the information is sparse. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Edge Books: History Hunters titles: Ancient Greece, Ancient China, and The Mayans.
