Publisher's Description of The Story of the 13 Colonies & the Great Republic Student Guide (2nd Edition) | Memoria Press
Our new study guide for this course includes important facts, vocabulary, and comprehension questions for each chapter, as well as enrichment activities such as map work, drawings, research, writing assignments, and more!
We have looked, and we cannot find an American history study on a grammar-school level that we think rivals H. A. Guerber’s two-volume American history set from the turn of the 20th century. So, rather than settle for lesser quality,we have combined Guerber’s The Story of the Thirteen Colonies and the Great Republic into one volume that makes it a perfect one-year survey of American history for the middle school years.
The Student Guide provides questions corresponding with the text and also provides an in-depth study that will aid the student in gaining a better understanding of modern history. Category Description for Story of the Thirteen Colonies and the Great Republic
