Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Excellent Value - Above Average Text
We enjoyed using this text, and also bought the teacher's manual and tests. I found the coverage of important events to be better than most textbooks. However, we mainly use textbooks as a sort of timeline or outline for history studies. It's great to add some hands-on activities, videos, and also historical literature to really round out your study.
This book is an amazing value for the price, and so are the tests! Since it is so inexpensive, you can use your homeschool dollars ... Read More
Rating:  - Hold the phones! What about the Baptists?
Okay, okay. Yeah, great resource-- full of good information; Beats your status-quo antichristian antiamerican stark-ravin-liberal history text any day. But is that really enough?!!! Christian Liberty Press demonstrates a better perspective on history than publically funded propaganda. But what ever happened to "unbiased"? Why can't we just tell it like it is without throwing a little "non-denominational" coloring in the mix?
Yes, I thought the narrative was informative and engaging ... Read More
Rating: - Good History Text
One of the few world history texts that combines a biblical worldview, creation science, and church history; it gives a solid overview of civilization. It has fair inclusion of both creationist and evolutionist theory of beginnings. The authors treat the Bible as one reliable historical document to be included among all the rest. This is an EXCELLENT introduction to western civilization, interesting, clear and full of opportunities for discussion. Major world cultures, religions, and their development ... Read More
Rating:  - We loved it
My 12 year old son and I bought this book from a homeschool store in CO in August upon their recommendation. We were not disappointed. We liked the balance presented by the authors and feel they did not try to hide the truth about what evolutionists or creationists think and why each side believes what it believes. We learned many things about civilizations that Mom (graduated 1976) or son had not read in previous Christian & non-Christian history books.
Rating: - An excellent book
I agree with Lina King's description. This is an EXCELLENT introduction to western civilization, interesting, clear and full of opportunities for discussion. I do not understand why she did not give the book any stars.
