About the Author:
Alex Stewart joined Marquette University in 2000 after ten years on the faculty of Texas Tech University. He is a past Chair of the Entrepreneurship Division of the Academy of Management, Program Chair and Co-Convener of the Organization Science Winter Conference, and Program Chair of the Family Enterprise Research Conference (for which he serves on the board). He has taught in virtually all levels for many different student groups and enjoyed them all, and currently focuses on leading the Entrepreneurship major and launching a non-business minor for MU undergraduates. His emerging research will focus on the photo-ethnographic study of kinship and entrepreneurship.
From School Library Journal:
Gr 5-8-Film stills and color photos of re-enactors, living-history sites, and ancient artifacts and locations are the centerpieces of these attractive introductions to the lives of warriors. Each topic (e.g., armor, weapons and battle tactics, living arrangements) is covered in a spread. The texts are largely composed of short paragraphs and "Fighting Talk" and "Combat Stats" text boxes that add definitions and more information. This format allows readers to learn about the warriors and their lives, but limits background facts about their native cultures. Unfortunately, there are no maps, which is a major weakness. While these books deliver little new information, their photo-based format and attractive layouts will draw browsers, especially boys, and encourage them to learn more, making them suitable as supplemental purchases.α(c) Copyright 2013.
