I have a 9th grader, and I'm thinking ahead the next few years for history curriculum. I've seen Declaration Statesmanship advertised in the CHC and Emmanuel Books catalogs, but I don't know anything about the course. I don't know anyone who has used it either. I'd like to know if it's a full year or semester course and what topics it generally covers.

If any of you have seen the course or used it, I'd appreciate the feedback.

TIA,
Trainmama

Dear TIA,

I have a ninth grader, as well, and have just ordered this course... so I'll get back with you in a few months to give you my humble opinion.

God bless.

I have reviewed this course. It is excellent! It is a semester course, but involves a lot of primary source reading, so it could be stretched to fit a year. It is intended for 11th or 12th grade though, and rightly so because the topics and research are pretty advanced. A highly motivated 9th or 10th grader could do it. It involves a lot of discussion, too. See the review with lots more info here:
