Uncover the rich heritage of a great people assembled from all nations!

An exciting, literature-rich journey through American history from before Christopher Columbus through the twenty-first century awaits.

You and your children will:

  • Encounter the gripping, true story of a young country preacher who took the gospel to the streets of New York City in the 1960s. Marvel as he confronts a culture of hate, violence and prejudice and daily risks his own life to bring the gospel to the city's fiercest gang leaders.
  • Unlock the mysteries of ancient Native American civilizations and the incredible structures that still captivate the attention of modern scientists.
  • Discover how God miraculously preserved a small group of men, women, and children (who brought freedom, justice and the gospel to the "New World") from ﬠerce Indian attacks, starvation, and disease.
  • Fight alongside great American patriots to establish a government unique in all history: a government, "by the people and for the people."
  • Travel on a heart-warming journey to a backward mountain cove in 1912 with a 19-year-old girl who left the lush provisions of her prosperous family to serve as the teacher in a humble mission. She leaves to teach—but ends up learning about love, friendship, honor, courage and faith in this most unlikely place.
  • Expose the treachery of one of Americans most notorious traitors—Benedict Arnold.
  • Examine the roots of America's most significant cultural issues while you empower your children to stand strong on the rock of a consistent biblical worldview.
  • And much more!

Core 100—American History In-Depth is anchored in the vivid biographies and compelling illustrations found in the award-winning A History of US series (Volumes 1 through 11) while thirteen other stimulating learning resources round out your year-long study. American History In-Depth completely integrates with the Literature and biographies. It's American History the way you wish you'd been taught—guaranteed!
