Plutarch does not judge for us, although he certainly has his opinions! He lays the man's life before us and we are left to judge. It truly is a remarkable way to study character and morality.

The Annotated Edition of Volume 6 includes the full, unabridged text of Charlotte Mason’s original work: A Philosophy of Education. All her words and wisdom have been retained while, at the same time, certain updates have been made for you, the modern reader.
Charlotte wrote her six volumes of the Home Education Series from 1885-1921. Her frequent references can leave today’s reader a bit frustrated, as she assumed that her readers would understand the context for each person, event, or book that she mentions. Without that context, the wisdom of her words can seem veiled and inaccessible for many readers.
My goal in adding annotations is to highlight Charlotte’s text and make it easier to read so that you gain a deeper understanding of her words and meaning.
Once you understand the references and the context, it is the key to unlocking the gate. You are no longer bogged down with unfamiliar terminology and references. The words soar.
THE ANNOTATED EDITION OF VOLUME 6 FEATURES:
<ul>
<li>The text has been updated with a modern font that is easier to read.</li>
<li>American spellings, not British, are used throughout.</li>
<li>The original page numbers, as published in earlier editions of Charlotte’s volumes, are in the margins so you can easily cross-reference other editions or study guides.</li>
<li>Annotations have been added.</li>
</ul>
The annotations provide context to help you better understand Charlotte’s frequent references to the people, events, and culture of her time.

Plutarch's Life of Julius Caesar: Annotated Edition

This edition of America First has been completely UPDATED AND REVISED for modern readers. 
AMERICA FIRST by Lawton Evans has always been my favorite book for elementary American History. The author has such a wonderful narrative style that always keeps students engaged. Unfortunately, the book also contains language and attitudes that are racially insensitive, as it was first published in the early 1900s. I have tried to remedy this so that parents can enjoy reading this book to their children without having to edit as they read it aloud.
AMERICA FIRST: UPDATED EDITION includes the following changes:
<ul>
<li>Any language that described Native Americans as savages or blood-thirsty has been removed.</li>
<li>The term “Indian” has been replaced with “Native American” or simply, “natives” or "people" in most instances</li>
<li>The term “negro” has been replaced with “person” or “citizen,” or, when referring to enslaved peoples prior to or during the Civil War, the term “negro” has been replaced with “slave.”</li>
<li>All instances of the term “master” and “marse” have been removed.</li>
<li>The term “white men” has been changed to “explorers,” “English colonists,” “colonists,” or simply, “citizens” or “people,” depending on the context.</li>
<li>Other updates to the book include restoring dignity to the descriptions of enslaved peoples.</li>
<li>Dates have been updated.</li>
<li>New illustrations have been added to the original illustrations.</li>
</ul>
I hope you and your children enjoy the updated edition of AMERICA FIRST.

Home Education: Annotated Edition

On April 10th, 1815, Indonesia’s Mount Tambora erupted. Th e resulting build-up of ash in the stratosphere altered weather pat-terns and led, in 1816, to a year without summer. Instead, there were June snowstorms, food shortages, epidemics, inventions, and the proliferation of new cults and religious revivals.
 Hauntingly meaningful in today’s climate crisis, Lebowitz’s lyric essay charts the events and eff ects of that apocalyptic year. Weaving together history, mythology, and memoir, The Year of No Summer ruminates on weather, war, and our search for God and meaning in times of disaster.

In Anything But Hank! Rachel Lebowitz and Zachariah Wells combine the whimsical humour of Lewis Carroll with the adventure-narrative balladeering of Robert Service to spin an unforgettable tale of a baby -- and a pig! -- in search of a name. Their quest takes them from the city to the mountains, as they seek an audience with the Wizard and his baby-naming Mexican beaded lizard. The story, accompanied by the gorgeously lush paintings of Eric Orchard, is a delight for readers of all ages.
