History Year by Year
This text is well-illustrated with full-color and black & white photographs, colorful maps, black and white drawings, text boxes, and cooler coordinated timelines for visual organization of eras. From a secular publisher, the dating begins 6.5 million years ago and concludes in 2018. It also includes a summarized timeline of North American in text form–which outlines key US and Canadian history dates. The text is concise and clearly explained. While handled through age-appropriate descriptions, tough historical topics are covered–for example the practice of Roman children being “put outside” to die at 8 days of age if rejected by fathers, the slave trade, the impact of the explorers on the New World, and the holocaust. 319 pgs, hc. ~Deanne

I love most smithsonian books and this one looks perfect for our homeschool history lessons.
Checked out from library because it was recommended by well trained mind. Fantastic resource that we want to keep on hand long term.
