Reviews

YA?Students will welcome this specialized one-volume biographical dictionary of famous and infamous political leaders and personalities who have global influence and/or historical significance. Over 500 brief, informative entries detail the lives, campaigns, and intrigues of kings and tyrants alike, spanning in time from the earliest pharoahs to modern-day dictators such as Khomeini, Hussein, and Ceausescu. The writing is brisk and clear, and the text is complemented by black-and-white illustrations, paintings, and photographs. The index is excellent, listing individuals also by country, political rank, and subject. A valuable resource for all libraries.?Carol Beall, Immanuel Christian School, Springfield, VA
