Description

This text is part of a series of reference books designed for children aged nine years and upwards. The books contain "exploded view" photographs and over 3000 specialist words presented in a labelled form, both of which are designed to help expand the child's knowledge and vocabulary. This dictionary looks at special military forces and includes information on clothing, weapons and special equipment as used by forces as diverse as Hitler's stormtroopers and present-day undercover surveillance units including a look at the SAS, Marines, Foreign Legion, bomb disposal units, bodyguards, Arctic and desert forces. The "Eyewitness Visual Dictionary of Animals" was nominated as a 1991 Best Book for Young Adults by the Americal Library Association. - from Amzon
