Book Reviews of The Story of the World: History for the Classical Child, Volume 4: The Modern Age: From Victoria's Empire to the End of the USSR

Book Review: Lots of information...
Summary: 5 Stars

I just finished reading the book today in preparation for teaching my DD9. I learned so much about the different countries of the world and why they are & how they came to be. I had been taught other ideas on certain subjects, but learned the history behind events in a different way through this book. I look forward to teaching my DD about the last 150 years with this resource.
