Suitable world history textbook?

Question

hi, just wondering..

we have math, physics and english books chosen.

does anyone have any recommendations for highschool level world history textbooks?

it would *not* be our main resource, because that's terribly dull. we would like to have one handy, though.

Answer 1

We like the "Kingfisher History Encyclopedia" as our main history resource. We then purchase or borrow from the library books about the different periods in history.

Answer 2

I would look into K12's middle/high school history texts.  We have volumes I and II and they are great!

Answer 3

My son uses Abeka for World History and World Lit.

It works quite well.
