Kirkus Starred Review”
Kirkus Reviews, September 1, 2017
“A must for high school students.’
School Library Journal, November 2017
“Throughout the series the writing is clear, the information presented is well documented, and the content and objective analyses are within mainstream historical scholarship. Series and individual titles about modern wars abound, but this set will assist readers and report writers in understanding the impact and continuing effects. VERDICT A strong consideration for teen readers.”
School Library Journal, November 2017
“The series is like the Department of Labor Statistics’ Occupational Outlook Handbook on steroids. It covers many of the same topics but in much greater depth.”
