These easy-to-read biographies present the accomplishments and main events in each man's life. Drawings, photographs, and other illustrations add to the appeal, as do bits of trivia scattered throughout the exclamation-point-laden text. The books conclude with an interesting feature: a brief interview with an expert on the subject. Timeline.
