United States History: An LDS Perspective, Volume 1

Living History brings historical events alive as you follow the same teaching methods Christ used in teaching principles through story telling. Presenting a total of nine volumes of history in an easy-to teach format, Living History makes teaching history as easy as telling a story. United States History, an LDS Perspective is a 2-volume historical account covering the period from the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215, to the present. Each volume contains nine periods of time called Epochs with stories built around a key date, a key person, and a key event – the most effective way to tie history together in an easy-to-learn format. The program is designed to spend one month covering the material in each Epoch, so you will complete one volume each year.
