Children should not just read about history, they should live it. In The Story of Civilization, author Phillip Campbell's historical expertise and story-telling ability make history come alive like never before.

The Story of Civilization emphasizes presenting world history as a thrilling and compelling narrative. Within each chapter, children will encounter short stories that place them directly in the shoes of historical figures, both famous and ordinary, as they live through legendary battles and invasions, philosophical debates, the discovery of new inventions and sciences, and the exploration of the world.

Volume III: The Making of the Modern World continues the journey where Volume II left off amidst the Renaissance, quickly diving into the history-altering events of the Reformation. This fracturing of the Church dramatically altered the course of modern Europe and the world at large. This volume brings us through present-day Europe, showing us the effects of two world wars and how the Church responded to these changing times.

Have you always wanted your children to learn about world history from a Catholic perspective? Here, you’ll have the trusted resource you’ve always wanted. Children will meet great figures like Sts. Pius V, Thomas More, John Vianney, and Margaret Mary Alacoque, as well as powerful leaders like Napoleon and Kings Henry VIII of England and Louis XIV of France.

Did you know…

Columbus called Native Americans “Indians” because he thought he had landed in India?
Henry VIII was once known as “Defender of the Faith”?
Five popes were known as the “prisoners of the Vatican” because they never left the Vatican grounds for 60 years?

The Soviet Union built what was called “the Iron Curtain” behind which they ruled half of Europe?

Embark on the journey now to learn of all these wonders and more!

Catholic Homeschooling (or not homeschooling) Essential

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 4, 2018

This series is an essential for the Catholic homeschooling family, and even for the non-homeschooling family. If you are looking to learn about history from a non-revisionist point of view, to learn about historical events and peoples in the context of the times in which they lived, to have morality intertwined with history, this is what you are looking for. I would absolutely recommend this series for families that send their children to school to off-set anti-Catholic/Christian teaching. As for this particular book, I've found it to be just as stellar as the rest. I've found learning about the Reformation from a Catholic perspective to be especially useful. The author is fair in his assessment, pointing out the "wicked" acts committed by members of the church while at the same time explaining how the actions of the "heroes" of the Reformation (Martin Luther, etc.), while perhaps well-intentioned, were still wrong and against Christ's one true Church. I also found the discussion of Christopher Columbus to be especially informative in understanding him within the framework of his time. And it is so wonderful to have the saints included in history! But the books are not just the author's moral assessment of history...this is a small part of them but hugely beneficial to a young reader. The books are primarily historical fact, of course, interwoven with stories narrated to bring history to life. My elementary school aged kids love listening to the books, though I'd say the books are more at a middle school level. As an adult, I've found this volume to be as fascinating as the first three and have learned so much from this series.

Kids will love learning history!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 26, 2020

I wish I had this book when I was a kid! It really brings history to life for the whole family. I searched hard for the right history curriculum for our homeschool and we've finally found it. My kids especially love the audio drama version of this, but the textbook is great to have as a reference as well. Check out the other books in the same series.

I love that there is an audio history book from the Catholic Christian perspective. My kids love listening to these - the 6-year-old to the 15-year-olds. Thank you!
