I grew up homeschooled in the 1980s. We had great books to read (and no TV). I read tons of books that taught me about America’s unique place in history, its people, and how Christianity was at the core of its founding. Want the books for your kids? I made a list: 👇🏻
These books are not your typical modern children’s books. There is no social justice, no sex, and no critical theory of any kind. Just good stories of American history based on primary resources. 👇🏻
And because America was primarily founded and populated by Christians, the books include that as a natural part of their stories. (When history books leave that out, they’re not “neutral,” they’re omitting facts.) 👇🏻
Whatever curriculum you use in your homeschool, these books will be a great addition. If your kids are in public school, these books are must-reads. 👇🏻

@nickitruesdell I noticed your love of Louis L’Amour… have you checked out Jamestown Revival’s (they are Texas boys) album entitled, “Fireside with Louis L’Amour”? It’s six songs based on the first six short stories in Volume 1. It’s really fabulous.
@MC090900 I have not heard of that! Thanks for sharing.
@nickitruesdell That's a great list for the the little ones! Do you have a list for high school kids?
@rompolyglot The books in this list span all ages. My kids read several of them in high school.
@nickitruesdell Just ordered the ones I lacked (early thru 1700’s) So glad you made this list!!
@nickitruesdell Lovely! Thank you!
