Literature By Time Period

Literature and Books always discounted at Schoolhouse Publishing!

I believe history should be studied chronologically so students catch the flow of God's sovereignty and interactions with humans.  If you want to study history chronologically and are looking for a specific time period to study, this section will help you.  We've broken our homeschool literature into specific historical time periods (when possible).  This will make it easy for you to shop curriculum, then to add supplemental literature to support your history curriculum.  Schoolhouse Publishing is known for making your homeschool shopping easy and convenient!

The Man Who Laid the Egg
The Man Who Laid the Egg by Louise Vernon
$7.95   $4.77
Softcover, 119 pgs, 9780836118285

"Erasmus laid the egg that Luther hatched" is what the people said. And that made young Gerhard Koestler smile. He knew that Erasmus had influenced Luther's thinking. He also believed both men were trying to serve God according to the Scriptures. Young Gerhard Koestler lived in Germany in the 1500s. He inherited money and a castle when his rich parents died. After a series of adventures and narrow escapes, Gerhard arrived in Basel, Switzerland, where he was able to live in the same house as Erasmus. Although Erasmus' enemies accused him of agreeing with Martin Luther, Erasmus said that the Bible was his guide.
