A History of US tells a clear story of United States history with scores of illustrations, photographs, and fascinating sidebars. This award-winning series brings American history to life through occasional first-person comments and striking short biographies. With no religious undertones, A History of US works well for families using charter schools and any family who has a passion for a thought-provoking US history narrative that spans from the earliest unwritten eras to the 21st century. A History of US consists of 10 paperback volumes, neatly divided into two parts, each of which can be completed within a school year. This set, part 2, includes books 6-10.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNote: Written for a mainstream audience, A History of Us does contain some bits of evolutionary supposition and the like. Additionally, history is brutal, and some text and photographs may be uncomfortable for young students. We are sure that religious and non-religious families alike will find this a beneficial series, but we encourage parents to dialogue often with their students, and if possible, to read or skim ahead of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYou can purchase the Complete Set here:\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/timberdoodle.com\/products\/a-history-of-us-ten-volume-set\"\u003eA History of US - Complete Set (Books 1-10)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eYou can purchase Part 1 (Books 1-5) here:\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/timberdoodle.com\/products\/a-history-of-us-part-1\"\u003eA History of US Part 1 (Books 1-5)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"product-single__features-title\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.joyhakim.com\/attachments\/book6_ch29_2.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003eDownload Book 6 Sample Chapter PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.joyhakim.com\/attachments\/book7ch19_2.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003eDownload Book 7 Sample Chapter PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.joyhakim.com\/attachments\/book8ch18_2.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003eDownload Book 8 Sample Chapter PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.joyhakim.com\/attachments\/book9ch21_2.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003eDownload Book 9 Sample Chapter PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.joyhakim.com\/attachments\/book10ch14_2.pdf\" target=\"new\"\u003eDownload Book 10 Sample Chapter PDF\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003ePublished:\u003c\/i\u003e 05 March 2007\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eIllustrations:\u003c\/i\u003e Numerous color \u0026amp; b\/w illus. throughout\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eISBN:\u003c\/i\u003e 9780195327267\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eEdition:\u003c\/i\u003e Revised Third Edition\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/i\u003e Joy Hakim\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/i\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cimg src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1994\/4551\/files\/ribbon_large.gif?v=1500415094\" alt=\"\"\u003eAwards, Reviews, and Endorsements:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJames A.
