Children should not just read about history, they should live it. In The Story of Civilization, author Phillip Campbell's historical expertise combines with narrator Kevin Gallagher's captivating story-telling to make history come alive like never before, complete with immersive music and sound effects.

The Story of Civilization emphasizes presenting history as a thrilling and compelling narrative. In each chapter, children will encounter short stories that place them directly in the shoes of historical figures, both famous and ordinary, as they live through legendary battles and invasions, philosophical debates, new inventions, and the exploration of the world.

Volume III: The Making of the Modern World continues the journey where Volume II left off amidst the Renaissance, diving into the history-altering events of the Reformation. This fracturing of the Church dramatically altered the course of modern Europe and the world at large. Volume III brings us through present-day Europe, showing the effects of two world wars and how the Church responded to the changing times.

Have you always wanted your children to learn world history from a Catholic perspective? Here, you have the trusted resource you’ve always wanted. Children will meet great figures like Sts. Pius V, Thomas More, John Vianney, and Margaret Mary Alacoque, as well as powerful leaders like Napoleon and Kings Henry VIII of England and Louis XIV of France.
