Great People Of The 20th Century contains one-page bios and engaging photos of many of the most significant leaders and influencers of the 20th century -- diplomats and warriors, scientists and moguls, explorers and artists. A collection of short biographies of influential and famous people of the 20th Century. Well-written with good photos, perhaps more geared to school-age kids. The title is misleading; with people like Hitler and Lenin profiled, it should be the most influential people of the century. A useful book to perhaps expand a high-schooler's knowledge of historical figures. Leaders: Theodore Roosevelt -- Woodrow Wilson -- Vladimir I.
