Full Text Reviews:
Booklist - 10/15/2019 The large-format books in the Turning Points series (6 new titles) offer introductions to a variety of subjects regarded by the publisher as “watershed events.” Writing in a polished, journalistic style, the authors organize information logically and present viewpoints effectively. Paragraph-long sidebars highlight facts, issues, and related topics. More than half the space in each volume is devoted to the large, glossy photos, which illustrate the text effectively. In addition to giving a broad, historical perspective, The Refugee Crisis introduces many individuals who have fled from life-threatening situations in their homelands and sought asylum elsewhere. Recommended for libraries seeking visually attractive books providing competent overviews of pivotal events in history and today’s world. - Copyright 2019 Booklist.
