Rating: 4 stars
Summary: NOT SO BAD
Review: In the writers attempt to get 100 battles in, he has forgotten to justify why he chose the way he did. Although it is easy to see how most of the battles chosen were on the list there are several examples of questionable choices. The author also writes down to the reader. Most of the book is written at a fifth grade level and is not enjoyable for a true historian.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Interesting outlook and commentary
Review: It is a very good book on most of the battles! But it left out a few battles that shaped world history!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Very simple look at Wars
Review: The author tried to do listing of wars for 3rd Grade level. In other words he worked more in placing a picture for every war.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: one word "Blasphemy"
Review: This book has been very successful in alienating and deeply hurt millions of muslims around the world. Just by putting a "picture" of the The prophet of God the author has proven his incompetence. How can the author just randomly select a picture and use it for such a great personality. This is utterly blasphemous. How can such a book even get past a review done by a person with a positive value for common sense? The only decent thing that the author and the publishers of this book can do apologize and remove the picture from the book.

Summary: Great book for making history interesting to kids
Review: This is a really splendid book that I bought about two years ago, and which my two boys still take out to re-read. Each battle is presented in a way that teaches a chunk of world history -- who was fighting, why, and who led them. First rate!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: 100 wars that shaped world history
Review: u guys must have written a great book and u must be feeling happy now after hurting the sentiments of muslims by getting a picture of the prophet. this shows u are working against ur own religion because by hurting other religions u are forcing the followers of that religion to feel that it is a case of religious importance and inturn u are giving a chance to get ur religion hurt by their counter efforts. so next time be careful in choosing a theme of the book....... thanks for spending time to read my review.... this is especially for the authors of the book........
