Battles that Changed History: Epic Conflicts Explored and Explained
by DK & Tony Robinson
I gave this book to my 12-year old son for Christmas and that was it: he spent the next week reading it, dragging it along on our trips, discussing it with his Dad (who was also rather taken by it). If you've got a child who is into history and battles, they will be mesmerized by Battles that Changed History: Epic Conflicts Explored and Explained—Sophie Roell, editor of Five Books.
