Aaron Wilkes is an experienced author and Head of History at Castle High School, Dudley.
A great deal of thought has been given to how textbooks can
interest and stimulate the reader and this depth study is a
well-illustrated and engaging example. This is a unit for Key Stage
Three History and it should prove a popular resource. Every effort
has been made to make the content succinct, yet focussed. Features
include mission objectives and checkpoints for whether the mission
has been accomplished. Key words are provided, as are 'pause for
thought' questions and key facts. Issues are examined through four
depth studies: British America, India, Australia and Africa and
these should prove thought provoking and ensure lively discussion.
In conclusion, this is a colourful and attractive book written by a
history teacher to enthuse students and it deserves to succeed.
