The book that single-handedly ignited my interest in history was The Killer Angels. So happy so hear that Scott recommended it. I absolutely delved into the War Between the States and have quite a collection of o/p books written on the subject (before revisionist history...cough...cough). One of the best parts of home education is teaching history through really good historical fiction.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I wish I had read The Killer Angels in high school.
ReplyDeleteHave you read any other Shaara books? There are some out there now written by his son about the Revolutionary War and World War II.
