Noted historian and award-winning author Don Nardo has written many books for young people about American history. Nardo lives with his wife, Christine, in Massachusetts.
Drawing on primary and secondary sources, readers are treated to a
page-turning narrative not usually associated with series books.
Hitler in Paris could easily be positioned as a standalone title
and its readability goes beyond standard research-paper purpose. It
demonstrates the power of photography to contemporary audiences and
to generations that follow.-- "Association of Jewish Libraries
Reviews"
Photographs can often be more powerful than the written word in
bringing social change. These use iconic photographic images...to
discuss specific, world-changing historical events and people's
reactions to them. A spacious page design enhances the
presentation.-- "Horn Book, Nonfiction Notes"
STARRED REVIEW! This outstanding follow-up to Capstone's "Captured
History" series continues the same format, focusing on a single,
emblematic photograph that defines an era or event. . . .This set
will show students how a single image can "capture" history and
influence the perceptions and actions of those who see it. The
books will certainly draw a large readership and are must-buys for
all middle-level and secondary collections.-- "School Library
Journal"
