Heritage History (TOS review)-Ancient Rome


Heritage History has assembled a thorough compilation of Historical books and arranged them into collections.  Each collection is arranged by theme, this provides students from 4th grade up to high school with a full history curriculum.   Since we have been studying Rome to the Reformation this year I requested the Ancient Rome CD and we found it to be a wonderful addition to our curriculum.

The Ancient Rome collection includes romantic stories for students of all abilities, from legends of early Roman heroes that fascinate youngsters to stories of political turmoil in the imperial era that provide food for thought to older students. Stories from Gothic, Carthaginian, and Byzantine history are also included.
Includes 45 books, 60+ maps, teaching aids, and a Study Guide
The first thing I did was pop the CD into my computer and see what came up.  I found a lot of useful information like outlines, maps, user guides, a weekly reading register, book selection guide and much much more. I just wished I would have had this for the entire year while studying Ancient Rome.

  I also found out that this can be downloaded onto a Kindle, iPad or any other type of reading device, SCORE!  Which would you prefer?  Carrying around 10 books or carrying a Kindle?  My husband appreciates that it frees up some shelf space (all the homeschoolers that I know have plenty of full bookshelves).

Each volume sells individually for $24.99
Their entire 5 volume set ,The World History Collection, is available for $99.99, a savings of $25 if bought individually.





Thanks for reading,
