This series - recently edited and reprinted by Memoria Press - was originally written in the 1920s for middle school students. Its highly readable text plus the comprehensive-without-being-overwhelming student guides combined with the just-the-answers-ma'am teacher's books ensure these courses will be loved by students and parents alike. The author provides a thorough look at political history, literature, and art - the means by which the spirit of a nation is expressed. Texts include maps, illustrations (artwork, ruins, and drawings), and quotes from the significant who walk through the halls of time.

One strong emphasis in these literature courses (which could be used as stand alone studies) is the identification, understanding, and memorization of quotations.
