“This third edition of the Encyclopedia of Invasions and Conquests is highly recommended to all high school, public and academic libraries. This source is not geared to one specific demographic and can be easily utilized by young adults in school, bachelor or graduate students, educators and subject specialists, as well as hobbyists. The Encyclopedia is laid out well and is easy to navigate while covering warfare from the ancient world through to the twenty-first century. Unlike most encyclopedias, Davis has incorporated additional readings and time period overviews so that users can easily understand the context in which the entries occurred. I strongly encourage libraries with a highly used reference collection, a community that strongly participates in National History Day, or patrons interested in military history, to purchase this Encyclopedia for their collection.”
