KS3, GCSE and A Level History reviews

KS3 History by Aaron Wilkes

"I LOVE the new editions of these, as far as I'm concerned, classroom staples.
I have started to think about the new curriculum and these undoubtedly have helped the process. Excellent!"

Teacher review on Amazon, 9 Feb 2014
Oxford AQA GCSE History - Germany 1890-1945: Democracy and Dictatorship

"This book has a nice balance between the use of text, source, diagram and identifiers for practice questions and study tips. Students who are visual learners have been well catered for while the extension sections within the book pick up on some of the more challenging concepts.
This is not a book that necessarily tells you how you should do things, this is a book that invites you to think about how you can use the information within it to enable students to be better prepared."

Steve Day, July 2016
Oxford AQA History for A Level - Tsarist and Communist Russia: 1855-1964

"Fabulous book for the course, really helps me understand everything and the layout is so colourful and easy to read and understand. The exam questions the book offers are helpful and it is very suited to the course. 100% would recommend!"
