by Christine Miller. I bought it it directly from the publisher Nothing New Press. They also have an ebook version. I noticed one of my favorite homeschool stores, Lamp Post Homeschool Store, carries it too. It is a very helpful book for planning your history curriculum. All Through the Ages is a compilation of over 5,600 living books and great literature arranged by chronological era, geographical region, and reading level from many sources. We like it with the many levels in our home. The book has a code system in the beginning as to where to buy the book she recommends. There are enough choices that you library is bound to have some of them.
If you follow this link and scroll to the end of the page you will see a link to PDF file that is an example from the book. I highly recommend this book. I am going to leave you with a quote from her web page
Happy Planning.
from the web site.
All Through the Ages by Christine Miller is a guide for teaching and learning history using literature rather than textbooks. Textbooks make history boring, but history is full of excitement, adventure, and heart-wrenching drama. Bring the “story” back into “history” by using this exhaustive guide to over 7000 of the best in quality historical narratives, historical fiction, literature, and “living books”! With nothing more than a library card, parents or educators can effectively teach their children both World and American history using this guide. It doesn’t matter whether the children are pre-readers or college-bound seniors; books of every reading level are included for every era, from picture books and beginning readers through the great books of Western Civilization. The author is a college-educated homeschooling mother of three with thirteen years’ experience, who compiled this guide in response to the overwhelming need for an organized one-stop resource for teaching history using the literature approach.
Tanks for such a great resource, Becky.
