Product Description:

Fans of Susan Wise Bauer's Story of the Worldare thankful she's writing a series for young (and not-so-young) adults. History of the Renaissance World is third in this series and tells the story of a world in transition. From the end of the First Crusade through the beginnings of our modern world, Ms. Bauer details the declining influence of the Popes even as the Inquisition seeks to assert their control; ordinary people seizing power even as kings and emperors cling to their "divine rights"; and world-changing catastrophes (ie. Little Ice Age, Great Famine, and Black Death); even as adventurous exploration opens up new worlds. Plentiful maps and illustrations accompany the distinctively readable text. ~ Janice

We are interested in adopting a new curriculum for 9th - 12th grade history. We are hoping that Susan Wise Bauer will complete the scope and sequence with a Modern World History text.

BEST ANSWER: No, it is neutral. But well written and interesting to read. We have the elementary/jr.high books as well as the first 3 HS ones and have enjoyed them. They focus on learning the stories from history.

Timeline 1100-1453
I love Susan Wise Bauer’s writings, but was disappointed that this book ran from 1100 to 1453 AD. I had planned to use it to cover later years, since I always studied the Renaissance as falling later than that—I should have read more closely!
