"The fourth book in Random House's highly regarded Illustrated History series for eight to 12 year olds, Marcia Stenson's The Illustrated History of New Zealanders at War is an excellent resource for students, families and libraries. From pre-European tribal warfare to the musket wars, from the Land Wars to the Boer War, and right up to conflicts in Korea and Vietnam and peacekeeping in the Pacific, Marcia uses her trademark informative, accessible style to explain to younger readers the intricacy of battle, weaponry and the various causes for which life was risked, blood shed and valour demonstrated. Rich in images, facts, figures, break-out boxes on heroes and heroines etc, and the sort of detail young readers cherish. ".
