Early American History

This study is designed for the teacher of American History who desires to impart to his or her students an understanding of the hand of God in the American saga. Seeing God's hand in the events of the past gives us vision and hope for the future. It is the author's belief that using literature or "living books" will lead students on a path of believing the principle best articulated in the words of Benjamin Franklin, "God rules in the affairs of men." Utilizes America's Providential History by Mark Beliles and Stephen McDowell and the D'Aulaire books. Older students may also want to utilize Teaching and Learning America's Christian History by Rosalie Slater, The Christian History of the Constitution by Verna Hall, and The Light and the Glory by Peter Marshall. These additional materials (as well as materials that may not be mentioned) will need to be purchased or borrowed for use with the study guide.
