So Good,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cue for Treason (Paperback)
Like many others I first read this book as a study in high school. I liked it so much that I kept my copy. It's been ten years now since I first read it, and I still take it out every now and again to relive it. I think it is very well written and interesting, rarely do you find a book that can mix adventure with history so nicely.

Fun intro to history,
By J S (Charlotte, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cue for Treason (Hardcover)
As a kid in Phoenix, AZ, I found Geoffrey Trease's books in the public library. After the first one, I devoured the rest. Up to that time I always said I didn't like history [classes, in school]. But after reading Trease's books, I became interested & tried Meader, and others.We moved away, & I lost the author & titles. But recently I went hunting. My favorite Trease books were the ones about Shakespeare (Cue for Treason), and his pair on Garibaldi. With neither author nor titles, I've had to hunt hard, & read a lot of children's books. But when I found Cue for Treason, I knew I'd found the right one. After 30 years, I still remember the story well [that right there tells you it's a good book!]. Trease was a good historian [even if his political views were off :) ]. Better yet, he makes history come alive. Look for ALL of his fiction. Wait - ignore that: wait until I have a complete collection, THEN look for them!
