School Library Journal...
“In this informative and interesting set, the clear narration by Trevor Nichols and Katinka Wolf is enhanced by background music which emphasizes the mood of each biographical sketch. A great deal of significant information is included about each figure as well as personal details that make them more accessible to students. This interesting audiobook will inspire further study and is a good way to introduce youngsters to these important historical figures.”
