Romance ou História?

As pretensões de Thomas ficam bem longe de passar perto da história neste livros... Com pretensões históricas, contudo muito romanceado, trata-se de um bom livro de literatura infantil (e não infanto-juvenil) para fazer crianças conhecerem personagens históricos famosos. E nada más.
