"This annotated bibliography might very well become a school librarian’s favorite resource when collaborating with history teachers. Although resources cover the K–12 spectrum, it will be most useful to those on the middle- and high-school levels. Public librarians might also find it a valuable resource, especially for collection development. Entries include fiction, nonfiction, and multimedia. Sections are divided by world regions and sometimes further by time period, with each section subdivided into fiction, history nonfiction, biography, graphic books, DVDs, and compact discs. All resources have been reviewed and are in print, with most published since 2000. Adult books for young adults are included. Entries, arranged alphabetically by author, contain bibliographic information, grade levels, descriptive annotations, and awards, where appropriate. Extensive indexes (author/illustrator, title, and subject) indicate entry number, not page number. This volume does not contain U.S. history; Adamson has written separate volumes for that topic." - Booklist Online
