Hopping from one side of the pond to the other, students are transported through literature to the roaring ‘20s, the Civil Rights Movement, major wars, heroes of the faith, artists, technological advancements, and much more. Students will find areas that they desire to spend more time in, and that is okay! The ThinkWrite activities are scattered throughout the guide providing opportunities for students to put into words what they are learning. Utilize the book list in the back for students who have a greater interest in individuals and events for further reading. 391 pgs, spiral. ~Rebecca

Publisher's Description of TruthQuest History: Age of Revolution III (America/Europe, 1865-2000)
- Whew! What can be said?! This final guide in the series tackles the most profound issues and needs of our day which are, of course, spiritual at their heart.
- Specifically, the students will see that folks were already yearning for a world without God, a world wherein mankind did not spring from a Creator and could thus rule himself. Of course, Darwin granted their wish. But much more than an issue of primordial ooze and monkeys, evolution would fuel the unbelievably drastic changes that have shaken western civilization. Your children will see this heart-issue in each sphere of life--art, law, human worth, government, education, science, business, and more--as each is thoroughly explored.
- Alas, with broken heart, we will also see that the euphoria of this "progressivism" has yielded deep discouragement and alienation. It specifically fueled the tragedies of the 1900s, such as World War I and II. Its fragmented and mechanical view of all life, including that of humans, is mourned in modern art and music.
- Yet, that is not the end of the story! God and His truth are still the only source of life, freedom, prosperity, and joy! And our children have this great message! Thus, this final guide focuses not on the 'gloom and doom' of the post-modern, post-Christian world they are inheriting, but on the great mantle of authority which rests gloriously on each young believer who chooses to find their place in HIStory! It draws together all that your children have learned throughout TruthQuest History so they can express it to this hurting world. History is also about the present and the future! There is hope!
Category Description for TruthQuest History
The goal of the TruthQuest History series is not to guide students through
textbooks, but to guide them through history. Since the guides provide only
basic summaries, many books are recommended; the beauty is that students can
pick whichever ones appeal to them or are readily available. You will be
challenged to think, research, and complete ThinkWrite sections. Responses to
the ThinkWrite sections can be done in a variety of ways including skits,
diaries, news reports, models, projects, drawings, and essays.
For example, Beginnings is a newer title in this series that combines the study of Creation, the Old Testament, the Ancients and Egypt. The Bible is the ultimate authority on history, but the author suggests some other key books that may be referenced throughout the study - Child’s Story Bible, Genesis: A Commentary for Children, Story of the Ancient World, Book of the Ancient World, Streams of Civilization Vol. 1, Genesis: Finding Our Roots, and Greenleaf Guide to the Old Testament. May your study of history become a study of His Story!
