Like other books of the DK Biography series, this work combines well- written, informative prose with excellent illustrations. Aimed at the level of the middle- school student, it is nevertheless fully appropriate for adults. For readers of all age groups, it offers a fine portrayal of the life of the famed 19th century entertainer and sharp-shooter Annie Oakley in concise, readable form. For my part, having known almost nothing about the book's subject, I very much enjoyed the account. (As an aside, it hadn't occurred to me that since Annie used a shotgun in her act, that her famed sharpshooting skills were perhaps not so excellent as one might have thought had her weapon been a rifle or pistol). I gladly recommend the book to those interested in learning more about this interesting woman's life and times.
