Booklist Review
Gr. 6^-12. These two books in the Way People Live series use a wide variety of quotations--from the people whose daily lives are being examined to government leaders--to help present a candid and objective portrait of a "pocket" of culture. In Life during the Spanish Inquisition, Stewart examines the beginnings of the Inquisition during the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella and goes on to such subjects as political and religious objectives and punishment methods (the details may be too graphic for some readers). Yancey's coverage of the discrimination practiced against the Japanese in the U.S. is approached with equal thoroughness--from Japanese immigration into the U.S. to conditions in the detention centers where Japanese Americans were sent. Black-and-white photos and excerpts from personal narratives emphasize the losses experienced by internees as well as the gritty reality of daily communal living. Both books are well illustrated and contain notes and an annotated list of further readings. Both will be of great curricular value. --Mary Romano MarksNotas de autor provistas por Syndetics
