This thrilling history book teaches students about the growth of our world, from the first explorers to today's modernized world. Set sail with Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan, and others as you follow this story-based approach on your journey to modern times, visiting the sites of major wars and revolutions and tracing the rise and fall of various nations.

Volume 3 in this series for junior high students includes:

-A conversational narrative that brings the modern age to life
-Gorgeous photographs, artwork, and maps that help students visualize people, places, and events
-Educational features that dig deeper into combating post-modern thinking with biblical authority

In exploring this course, students will see how God used people to expand and advance our world. They will learn about the discovery of new lands, the development of new technology, and the constant cultural struggle among people of all ethnicities. They'll also study how modernization has radically changed politics, economies, cultures, societies, and worldviews all around the globe!
