Attention home schooling parents: If you're teaching the Civil War to high school students, you may be interested in adding the Heroines Behind the Lines Civil War series of novels to your reading list. You'll learn a lot just by reading the novels themselves, and the notes on the history in the back of each one, but for those of you who'd like to dig deeper into the historical topics, download this FREE 30-page supplement to the first book in the series, Wedded to War: Home school supplement for Wedded to War I had way too much fun putting this together for you. It includes more information on:
- Historical figures who inspired the novel
- Women's fashion during the Civil War
- Chief camp diseases of the Civil War
- Civil War medicine
- Civil War songs and poems
- And more
I included many photographs, links to several online videos, and several suggestions for further reading. Whether you are a home schooling family, or simply love history, enjoy! P.S. The HomeScholar is hosting an online Christmas party which includes MANY give-away items for high school home school students, including a set of Wedded to War, Widow of Gettysburg, and Yankee in Atlanta. The party is Tuesday, Dec. 9--register here!
