FREE: American History Audio Book: This Country of Ours by HE Marshall LibriVox recording

All of this collection is in the public domain and read by volunteers~I'd highly recommend This Country of Ours by HE Marshall from LibriVox for elementary to highschool.  EXCELLENT overview of American History-Eric the Red through the colonization and founding of each state in the United States. LOVE this book!

FREE: American History FUN Site~Organized by Topic Using Film

This is exactly WHAT I've been looking for this year to complement our history education. I'd like to find this kind of thing for world history, and so far I've not done it~do you know of one?  In the mean time,
Have Fun With History looks wonderful, and I will be enjoying this one in my spare time! It's right up my alley, and since I don't watch television unless it's web based online, I am looking forward to digging in here!  Thanks Homeschool Buyers Co-Op and Homefires.com (Clickschooling eZine) for sharing this resource! whoohoo!
