[Carol · Rating 3 out of 5]

These themes aren't really my cup of tea, and I can't say I found the museum marvellous, or its guide. Yes, it was educational and I learnt a lot, but it would have been better if the guide had led me through the floors, instead of just talking about the war. It hardly ever tells you in which floor you can find the exhibitions, so it's just one long summary of British military career over the years since WWI. It could have more, but at the same time I'm glad it didn't, because these topics are hard for me to digest. However, if you like history, this is quite perfect to tell you an overview of what you'll get to see in the museum.

Tämä museorypäs jäi aikoinaan käymättä ja nyt sitten luin tämän kirjasen lukuhaastetta varten. Olihan tämä raskas aiheeltaan mutta kuvat ovat kiinnostavia enkä tiennyt kuinka laajasti Britannian sotahistoria onkaan dokumentoitu.

Very superficial.

c2008: This is much more than your normal museum guide. The illustrations are great and the narrative - thought provoking. Really good for a quick brief reference. Highly recommended.
