Back cover damaged

Schönes Buch, top Zustand, jedoch ist die Qualität des bedruckten Papiers mangelhaft. Für den Preis aber voll ok. Und inhaltlich sehr humorvoll, minimalistisch illustriert. Macht Spaß zu lesen.

All the points made in this book are accurate and I can only laugh at the 2 poor reviews given to this book by obviously outraged Brits who don't have any idea of how truly horrible their Empire was. On an absolute scale, the Empire did more damage to more people than the Nazis. It was infinitely more evil about time someone portrayed it correctly

I think this is a great book, my parents and grand parents lived through some of the facts written in the book, it is brutally honest and educational, I feel it helps teach us to respect the past and not try and airbrush the parts of our history or heritage we do not like. History is there for us to learn from, it should teach us respect for everything the people from the colonies or the slave trade have offered to make Briatain so Great, we should all be grateful top those races who were taken from their homes and families to be brought to England to build our amazing cities and palaces that we enjoy today. Embrace, Remember and Respect!

My almost 11 year old son-LOVES this series! These are the books he asked for Xmas this year and hasn't put them down yet! Lots of great history details.

Very good, but wish it was a bit longer!
