Greenleaf Guides To History and Famous Men Series

Set your study of ancient civilizations in Biblical context with these excellent study guides. Background information, vocabulary, and discussion questions prompt the student to reflect on how the various key historical figures match up to God’s standards of justice and righteousness. Excellent for unit studies.

Be sure to see our Milliken Intermediate History for excellent correlated studies!

The four titles below - The 'Famous Men' series - are highly interesting reprints of turn of the century classics that work very well with the Greenleaf guides above but they may also be used independently. History is taught chronologically as students read fascinating biographical sketches examining the lives of notable historical figures, many of whom can’t be found anywhere else. Your fourth or fifth grader should be able to enjoy them independently, older students can read them as well and not feel like they have been given something ‘babyish’. Children as young as five love listening!
