My absolute favorite history homeschooling resource EVER My absolute favorite history homeschooling resource EVER. I would highly recommend as a supplement or as the core of any homeschool history curriculum. Great for a wide range of ages.. ncbeachglass said Best splurge of the homeschool budget.. Decided to splurge and get the volume we had as an ebook on Cd. Money well spent. There are times, like driving in the van when we review history that wouldn't be possible without the cd set. I have also found homeschooling more than one child that often we are not all finished at the same time. The cd set allows for independent learning. The narration is pleasant, and easy listening. The STOW is written in an engaging story format and the cd offers the same style. I now feel it is not a splurge, and will be purchasing the cd set for the next volume.. "Top notch!" according to Teresa. Best way to learn world history! Love it!
