Story of the World Vol 2. History for the Classical Child. The Middle Ages (400 - 1600) - This engaging story tells world history in a compelling, fun, way. Who discovered chocolate? What happened to the Giant Fovor of the Mighty Blows? Why did the Ottoman Turks drag their war ships across dry land? Don't just read about history — experience it! Color a picture of Viking warrior, make an edible oasis, create a Moorish ruler's turban and Aztec jewelry and more. This history includes comprehension questions, maps, and geography activities, coloring pages, lists of additional readings in history and literature, and plenty of fun hands-on activities — all designed for a range of ages.
