Personal Review: The Story of the World: History for the

Classical Child: Volume 1: Ancient Times: From the Earliest

Nomads to the Last Roman Emperor, Revised Edition (Kindle) by

Susan Wise Bauer

We began homeschooling when our oldest daughter was in 7th grade and

did our best to thoroughly cover American History before sending her off to

high school. When she was a sophomore in high school taking the World

History AP class, she would listen to me read this series of history books to

her much younger sisters and comment about how much easier her life

would have been in that class had she had the background that her sisters

were getting. She earned the highest possible score on the World History

AP test that year and the American History AP test the next year and is

now bound for the Ivy League. She is my best resource for knowing if we

are thoroughly covering the bases and would definitely give SOTW a

thumbs-up rating. She also would add that Joy Hakim's "A History of US"

is the way to go for U.S. history.
