A History of War (1.25 hour class)
By David A. Cartwright
Objectives: We will study the history of the world through an understanding of its conflicts. Particular attention will be paid to their economies, politics, terrain, natural resources, and their understanding of science as it influenced their methods of warfare and thus their position globally. We will study tactics, weapons, armor, logistics, living history, farming, mining, building methods, ballistics, and many other disciplines as they relate to warfare.
Instructor: David Cartwright Grade Level: 8th – 12th
Tuition: $40 per month over 9 months PLUS a one-time $20 class fee.
Materials vary, depending on the projects you choose and the books you choose to do your reports. You could use library book and less expensive projects to cut down this cost to almost nothing.
Homework: There is some vocab in each section but most of the work for class will be in two book reports (historical books of your choosing), a detailed timeline, and two projects. The projects will also be of your choosing and can be many different historical activities, from blacksmithing to flintknapping to making hardtack.
