Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 1-2-Though some of the full-page photos of military vehicles in the field are dark, making the pictured machines hard to decipher, the color photos, high-interest topics, and large-type texts bedewed with military-style acronyms-particularly in Trucks-may draw reluctant older readers as well as younger browsers. Despite the narrow scope of each volume, there is some overlap in Amphibious Vehicles and Ships. On the other hand, unarmed trucks don't often get this much notice in surveys of military vehicles, and the flying drones and several of the other devices in Robots may be new even to veteran fans of heavy-duty transport.
