These radio shows are a great supplement for your children when studying American History in your Homeschool this year, or just for the sheer excitement of listening to this wonderful radio program as a family.

If you are planning to study about the Lewis and Clark expedition this year, we have found some additional resources for you: Christianbooks.com has two versions of the diaries kept by Lewis and Clark on their extraordinary journeys; the 1st is Journals of Lewis and Clark, which corrects the spelling and grammatical errors made by the men writing in haste, as well as being edited for presentation in modern English; and The Journals of Lewis and Clark, which is pretty much presented the way it was written. Also available is the Lewis & Clark and the Louisiana Purchase Wall Map that you and your children can refer to as you listen and read about what President Jefferson referred to as “The Corps of Discovery”.
