Snapshots of Modern History
Snapshots of Modern History is secular, inclusive, world history curriculum aimed at 5th to 10th grade students
covering history from 1850 to 2000+.
In order to create a truly global, inclusive history book on such a pivotal era of history, its going to take a lot of words! The estimated page count for the Modern level is over 1,000 pages. As such, this level is split into three volumes. Volume 1 covers history from 1850 to the eve of World War I in 1914. Volume 2 will begin with World War I and conclude in the aftermath of World War II. Volume 3 will begin during the rise of the Cold War and continue into the early 2000s.
Each volume includes 36 chapters organized into 18 sections. The chapters in each section are on related topics so that you can easily study two chapters a week. Depending on how quickly you move through materials, this level can be completed in one to three years.
Snapshots of Modern History Vol. 1 is now available. It covers important events like modern scientific breakthroughs, British colonization across the globe, the unification of Italy and Germany, the American Civil War, the end of chattel slavery, the origins of reservations and
residential schools in the United States and Canada, the Meiji Restoration, French colonization in Southeast Asia, the Scramble for Africa, the origin of Zionism, mass immigration to the Americas,
