Heather in VA Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I've been looking at this and it's referred to as 'World History Detective Book 1'. However, I can't find any sign of 'Book 2'. Is it just called Book 1 for convenience in case they come out with a Book 2 someday or is there a book 2 that I just haven't found yet?

desertflower Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I don't know the answer to your question, but my book says World History Detective, Ancient and Medieval Civilizations. I don't see the words "book 1". I imagine that there will be another one in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in VA Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share Posted October 20, 2016 Interesting... Both amazon and Christianbook call it book 1 but then I went to the Critical Thinking website and it says 'Ancient, Medieval, and Early American Civilizations'. So maybe Amazon and CB just added the 'book 1' in anticipation of a potential book 2. Either way it sounds like what I want LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsquirrel Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Mine says 'book 1" right on the cover. I got it last year. It's a great supplement for logic stage history. I've used it for year 1 and now year 2 of the history cycle. I have checked several times to see if they had a book 2, because it would be nice to have for 7th and 8th grade. There is a history detective American History that could be used in 7th and 8th, but I'd really like one for world history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desertflower Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Oic. I bought mine this year from the critical thinking company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fourisenough Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 My DD12 is taking a class with the author through his company, The Classical Historian. You could e-mail him to find out. I'd love to know if there will be another book, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in VA Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 I just wanted to update you guys on this. First - I got the book and I love it. I guess that's also the bad news because I emailed the Critical Thinking Co about the 'Book 1' notation and asked about Book 2. This is the answer I got back. The author of World History Detective has moved on to other projects, so, though we are hoping to eventually continue the series, we do not currently have an author or a timeline for when that might be available. So while it looks like the original intent was for a book 2 - there doesn't seem to be one in the foreseeable future. Bummer. I know there are two books for US History but I was hoping for more World History before taking on the US books. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PollyOR Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Thanks for the info, Heather. We love this book too and I was wondering why I had never seen a second volume. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Bumping this old thread. I emailed CTC to ask about this as I could use something to supplement Human Odyssey Book 2 next year. (I have a backup plan, but this would be great.) Here was their reply: At this time, we don't have any additional World History books in the works. We would consider doing more. If you are an author and would like to submit a manuscript for a second book, please visit our Author Submissions page. So, if any of you want to write one like Book 1, please go ahead! :lol: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Tick Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Maybe that could be a side project for your student... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
