Covering major periods in world history, The Who's Who of... introduces key players who significantly influenced the outcome of global conflicts and crucial economic developments. Each title covers biographies of political and military leaders alongside figures from resistance movements, inventors, industrialists, spies, code-breakers and rebels.
Clive Gifford is the author of more than 150 children's books including 'Eye Benders', winner of the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize, Royal Society-nominated 'Out of This World' and '30 Seconds Space'.
I like these books and just wish that children could be persuaded to use some of these super non-web based resources.
