The Story of the World Volume 3: Early Modern Times Audio

History will never be the same.

This spirited reading of the third volume in Susan Wise Bauer's Story of the World series brings to life the stories and records of the peoples of the past.

Now more than ever, other countries and customs affect our everyday lives—and our children need to learn about the people who live all around the globe. Susan Wise Bauer has provided a captivating guide to the history of early modern times. Written in an engaging, straightforward manner, The Story of the World weaves world history into a storybook format. This volume covers the major historical events from the years 1600 to 1850--from Elizabeth the First to the gold rush in California.

This Story of the World audiobook is a collaboration between Jim Weiss, whose voice is “liquid gold” (CNN TV), and Susan Wise Bauer, whose writing has been described as “timeless and intelligent” (Publishers Weekly). It may be used along with the print book, as a supplement to a traditional history curriculum, or independently.
