By: Winston Brady

History, as the name implies, is a story , and history, at its best, is the most engaging and exhilarating story. As a story told about the past, the study of history contains meaningful insights about the present; insights that, if properly presented, should inspire students to make better choices in the future. Thus, the study of history holds a particularly important role in classical education, for history class offers the very best examples of human achievement for students to study and to help form their character for the better. Classical education takes students through the great books, so those great students can take on the whole world. The Thales Canon is a history book designed for Junior High classical schools. Volume III: Empires of the East presents a survey of ancient India and China from the very beginnings of these civilizations. Each chapter includes reading highlighted and bolded vocabulary words, reading comprehension questions, and writing prompts, as well as exercises devoted to maps and timelines. In this way, The Thales Canon is an ideal resource for teachers and teaching-parents to provide their students with the learning activities needed not only to make history come alive but also help their students thrive thanks to their study of history.
