Resource Lists

In response to customers' requests for resources needed to accompany Modern History Through Canadian Eyes, we have made the following lists available.  These are suggested resources only!  Many more resources are listed in the guide.

If you wish to purchase the guide and resources all in one package, Canadian Home Education Resources has packages available.

Please note:  Footprints in the Snow by Robert Livesey is now out of print.  It is an excellent resource, however, and I highly recommend you look for it in your local library.  A History of the English Speaking Peoples by Winston Churchill is available at many libraries and for purchase on e-bay or from other used book sellers.
