Pfitzer, "History Repeating Itself: The Republication of Children's Historical Literature and the Christian Right" English | 2014 | pages: 328 | ISBN: 1625341245 | PDF | 44,3 mb Recently publishers on the Christian Right have been reprinting nineteenth-century children's history books and marketing them to parents as "anchor texts" for homeschool instruction. Why, Gregory M. Pfitzer asks, would books written more than 150 years ago be presumed suitable for educating twenty-first-century children? The answer, he proposes, is that promoters of these recycled works believe that history as a discipline took a wrong turn in the early twentieth century, when progressive educators introduced social studies methodologies into public school history classrooms, foisting upon unsuspecting and vulnerable children ideologically distorted history books. ![]() Hiking Waterfalls Colorado: A Guide to the State's Best Waterfall Hikes, 2nd Edition by Susan Joy Paul, Stewart M.
