Cathy Duffy Review

Reviews. Whether it's using two thumbs up, five stars, or a scoring system, product reviews are important for consumers to see before making a purchase.

Not only will we provide you with actual chapters from our textbooks to preview the quality of the content, we also provide you with third party reviews and testimonials to assist you in choosing the right textbook for your child and student.

"This book and its forthcoming companion will fill a clear need for a study of world history that fully acknowledges the vital role Catholicism has played in the development of our own civilization."

Here are some more excerpts about our textbooks from Cathy Duffy Reviews:

"The Catholic Textbook Project’s goal is to produce high quality history textbooks that teach from a Catholic worldview."
"...nicely illustrated in full color. They are written in more of a narrative style than most traditional texts, so they are fairly interesting to read."
"...extensive teaching material for each chapter that includes a chapter overview, chapter goals, paragraph-long explanations of each key piece of information students should master, vocabulary terms and definitions, review questions, optional activities, sample quiz and test questions, and answers to all the questions."
From Sea to Shining Sea: The Story of America
"Overall, this is an excellent text and one of the best choices for grades 5 though 8."
All Ye Lands: World Cultures and Geography
"...this is an excellent overview of world history and cultures."
Light to the Nations, Part I: Development of Christian Civilization
"...it actually makes it easier for students to grasp the “story” of history with a presentation like this since it follows the story line of Christian civilization. With a clear understanding of the development of our western, Christian civilization, students can branch out for further study of other cultures later on."
"This book and its forthcoming companion will fill a clear need for a study of world history that fully acknowledges the vital role Catholicism has played in the development of our own civilization."
"Overall, the Catholic Textbook Project makes an extremely valuable contribution to Catholic education—one long overdue and sorely needed."
