- One of the foremost objectives
of Bluebonnet Press in publishing The War Between the States:
America’s Uncivil War (WBTS) is to provide to home school
and private school students a comprehensive, historically accurate,
and artistically attractive account of the war, its causes, and its
aftermath and implications for latest generations. The origins of
the book lie in John J. Dwyer’s inability to find such a work
to adequately supplement his own teaching in a Classical Christian
school history class.
- Since the book also provides a
feast of information and illustrations for the general reader
outside the classroom, we have cleared it of ancillary material that
would normally appear in a textbook, such as study questions, key
terms, and recommended resources. We are placing all these, along
with quizzes, tests, lesson plans, chapter summaries, and suggested
projects and activities, within this online study guide. It will be
an ongoing project, and we shall add more material as we go.
- We shall also provide an updates
section for new information, revisions, corrections, and the like,
as well as the comments and suggestions of readers.
-
- A whole coterie of historical
scholars, both in front of and behind the scenes, have contributed
to assuring that WBTS offers the most accurate, thorough, and
up-to-date scholarship possible on the material it covers. John and
others associated with the book envision many uses for it in the
educational realm, including:
- Home school Unit Studies
-
Private school American History
classes
-
Collegiate American History courses
-
School and public libraries
-
Reference book for teachers
-
Research tool for students of all
ages
- We at Bluebonnet Press hope The
War Between the States: America’s Uncivil War, and our
online study guide, provide you with an enjoyable and beneficial
learning adventure!
