Our Modern World history teachers have used Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs, and
Steel for years as summer reading between freshman and sophomore year, but
they’d like to find another book to consider. The sophomores begin their
history courses at about 1500, the beginning of the Modern Era.
Does your history department require students to read over the summer to
prepare? Please send titles.
Thanks!
