RUSH TO HISTORY!

Well, the school year is about to start, and it's time for homeschoolers to get their curriculum together. As a supplement to American history, you might consider two childrens' books written by of all people, Rush Limbaugh. They are Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims and Rush Revere and the First Patriots. Both have spent weeks on the New York Times best sellers list and have earned Limbaugh recognition as the best children's author of 2013. The novels are historical adventures where middle school teacher Rush Revere and selected students time-travel through history on the talking horse Liberty. Though written for ten- to thirteen-year-olds, younger children and adults enjoy them as well.--Quinn

AMERICA: IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT HER

Occasionally, I will mention a book that I feel is very important. This time it is Dinesh D'Souza's, America: Imagine a World without Her. Told through the eyes of an immigrant, it is an overview of American history that has not been filtered through a "progressive" mindset. If you see the movie version, take a hanky and be prepared to cheer.--Quinn
