The Age of Discovery

The Age of Discovery

A wonderful overview of world history from the time of the Crusades to the Renaissance for children which is written in Charles Kovacs's warm and expressive style.

Including Saladin, Joan of Arc, Columbus, Magellan, Queen Elizabeth and Francis Drake, Kovacs explores the notion of cause and effect and the inter-connectedness of world events.

This is a fascinating and engaging resource for teachers and home schoolers which is used in the Steiner-Waldorf curriculum for 12-13 year olds.
