The American History list is as
complete as I can make it. For the last several books there are dates
mentioned. This should help you place it where ever you may wish. My
parameters in placing the books depended on a few different ideas: 1) What is
the last date mentioned in the book? 2) If the book is a biography, what is
the person most famous for? If name only is famous, book may be placed at end of
the person's life. 3) A few books, especially during early American History,
are placed early in order to give an overview of the time that the next few books will
cover. These could be read again, if time allows. Several of the books placed
towards or at the end of the list may be used throughout your studies, especially those
books which include several biographies of famous people or military books. I pray
this list blesses your home. ~Leola
