Chronicles of America

Published by homesheart at 10:09 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

The Chronicles of America is an excellent resource for homeschooling families needing teaching resources for American history.  The series consists of fifty volumes of books, written during the year 1921.  Many of the books are in the public domain (they weren’t all written by the same author) but since they are in the public domain, you can find the entire series online at Project Gutenberg.  Here is a list of the titles. However, it’s important to note that these books were written for those with at least a ninth grade reading level, they aren’t for younger children.
