Hello all:
        I just received a request for suggestions as to some good books to teach
New York State history to home schoolers.  My library and the sources I
most often use are either really old or are very topic-specific and
wouldn't be of much use to the educators.
        Can all the good people here put together a list of their favorite readily
available books that would suit the home shcool curriculum (all ages)?
        The person who asked is an active-duty soldier in Germany, and any
suggestions for sources that he could get overseas would be fantastic!
