Gandhi (Twentieth Century History Makers) - Hardcover

20TH CENTURY HISTORY MAKERS is an important new series of biographies aimed at introducing older children to the most important historical figures of the 20th century. Through lively, straightforward text and both black and white and colour photographs, young readers can find out about the events of the subjects' lives and how they impacted - for both good and evil - on the world at large. Throughout the books, boxes, panels and maps help out the running text, highlighting important events, concepts and key facts. This combination of narrative and feature provides information essential to the understanding of the subject, and really gives a sense of time and place.
