Looking at these historical events and modern conflicts through the
lens of how secrets were found out by different sides, and how
those secrets and the spies themselves influenced the outcomes, is
a fascinating approach to making history and politics kid-friendly.
The text is broken up nicely into manageable chunks with brightly
colored illustrations on every page.-- "Library Media
Connection"
These books offer glimpses into intrigue and subversion from the
Revolutionary War to modern times, providing details about why
military operations and governments need spies. . . .These
overviews might spark a thirst for more knowledge rather than
quenching one, but are interesting introductions to the topic. All
of the books have photos, reproductions, or illustrations on every
page.-- "School Library Journal"
