Foster a love of history as your student discovers the principles of our country’s founding. American History is filled with exciting stories told from a Christian worldview. The first course in a four-year study from Dave Raymond that spans Antiquity to Christendom, then America’s founding through Modernity. If you’re looking for a great start to a comprehensive four year history program, this is it. We recommend children be over age 12 to take this class due to brief artistic nudity in some of the historical artwork that is presented in the course.
