The Mystery of History: Volume I
The Mystery of History: Vol I, 3rd Edition is all your family will need to teach history from ancient civilizations to the time of Christ. What appeals to us most about this program is its worldwide approach to history. Your family will learn that Rome was established less than ten years after Jonah's trial in a fish. The last book of the Old Testament was written at about the time of Alexander the Great. And that the Great Wall of China was built 200 years before the birth of Christ. 

Combines Biblical & Secular History
As they read the Bible, Christians tend to forget that other civilizations were warring, struggling, and searching for truth. Therefore, this history program is written with combined Biblical and secular history. While decidedly Christian in bent, other cultures and faiths are presented with deference.  The Mystery of History: Vol I is written in a conversational style for elementary through high school students. But it can also be used as a read-aloud with younger children.

Multi-Age Activities
Not just a textbook, Volume I includes a digital (as a download code) Companion Guide. This Companion Guide is brimming with multi-age activities, hands-on activities, and research projects for younger, middle, and older students. It also includes memory card ideas, bi-weekly quizzes, exercises, timeline helps; maps; supplemental book lists, etc. This option is particularly beneficial for families with younger students in elementary and middle grades.

108 Lessons
The Mystery of History was designed with a thirty-six-week school year in mind. Each week includes a pretest, three lessons, a review, and an exercise or quiz. Written for 4th- to 5th-grade reading level for independent reading. However, as a read-aloud, family study, or classroom program, The Mystery of History can accommodate grades 1-12. Is your family ready to study history in an in-depth, Bible-centered, chronological fashion? Then The Mystery of History is for you.
