Biographies of Christians: Twenty Reformers & Puritans (Electronic book text)

This is a collection of twenty historical biographies with interesting facts and entertaining anecdotes about great men of God to help classroom teachers and homeschool parents teach English composition. Short enough for upper elementary school students and challenging enough for older students, this book is the product of many hours of in-class instruction. Biographies cover such luminous figures of Church history as Calvin, Luther, Baxter, Watts, Melanchthon, and Bunyan. Designed for ease of use by the busy teacher, these exercises are also flexible enough for the more experienced teacher to adapt as necessary. These exercises build writing skills while strengthening vocabulary skills, historical knowledge, and understanding the Christian faith. First edition, 2007.
