* Christian Slant Historical Living Adventure Books are somewhat in order of the Era. Scroll down the book list. All books have links to them. This is for my convenience so I can find them quickly and remind myself of the reviews. I do not get any pay for any of the recommendations links. I have not read all the books as well. We do History in order and this is the beginning stages of our homeschool. If you have any knowledge of any of the books please leave a comment. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteDenise, The Little Lady and I are reading out loud The Golden Gobblet. We are finishing up her Egypt Unit. I picked it up at a used book store for practically nothing. I would imagine the library has a few of them as well. Let me know if she reads any of them.
ReplyDeleteThe Bronze Bow was highly recommended, by the way.
I am not familar with any of these but I will definitely check them out. Thanks for taking the time to post them. Enjoy your day and God bless.
ReplyDeleteHi Carman, Andrea here. One book for the late middle ages is Christopher Columbus by Genevieve Foster. Everything you ever wanted to know....and then some. I've got a box of books set aside for you. Bob and Debbie Gerstenberger send hugs along with us. Love to all.
ReplyDeleteCarmen, not sure if you are aware of this link from the AO website http://www.redshift.com/~bonajo/history.htm
ReplyDeleteI plan on using it with my dd to supplement history with living books.
Mrs. Andrea. Can you please email me. I don't have your email address and your last email never got to me!
ReplyDeleteOh goody! Books! I adore books!
Thank you Rosemary for the site! I will check into it. I have a little girl that is consuming books and I am reading just as fast as she is just to keep one step ahead of her! ;)
ReplyDeleteMrs. Andrea, Thanks! I now have it in my cue! I got to figure out how to get in contact with you! Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteWe loved Mara and the Mathmatician that measured the world! Such a great list! Definetly check out Ambleside Online. You won't regret it.
