This is a list of the living books that we have read, are currently reading or intend to read during our first study of American history over the next couple of years. We will be checking them off and adding to the list as we go. We are drawing from the booklists in our Truthquest AHFYS guides, as well as from Ambleside Online: Years 4, 5 & 6.
