Meriwether Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I'm sure it has been mentioned already, but the older kids and I read A World Undone when we studied World War I. It is a long but enjoyable read. And I think Ds was 14 when he read it, so manageable despite its size. Although, my kids have a pretty good history base, which maybe made it easier to follow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Tick Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 My dc recommend "Treaties, Trenches, Mud and Blood" by Nathan Hale. A very readable graphic novel in the junior nonfiction section. A quick, concise read. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori D. Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Also if you have oodles of time, The Great War video series did a super job of explaining, week-by-week what happened and why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
