From School Library Journal
Grade 10 Up?This is not a cursory overview of 18th-century Europe; rather, it is a skillful introduction to the individuals, events, accomplishments, and concepts that defined the age. Readers new to this series might be fooled by the relatively small amount of text and the pen-and-ink drawings on every page. The format, however, is designed to make a rather formidable subject less intimidating and more appealing. A new topic is introduced on every page or two, such as "The Philosophes" or "Rousseau's Challenge." Each entry is succinctly explained, often with accompanying quotes, and is illustrated. Important names, words, and phrases are in boldface. Keeping track of the various concepts and the beliefs and accomplishments of numerous individuals can be confusing, and there is no index to help readers refresh their memories as they move through the complex interrelationships. Nevertheless, the material is presented in a straightforward, engaging style that remains interesting and informative throughout.?Marilyn Heath, Greenwood High School, SC
