To celebrate the new school year I’m hosting a giveaway each day this week (September 1st-7th) featuring educational products and books! Today’s giveaway is sponsored by Arx Publishing!
Today I’d like to introduce you to Arx Publishing! Arx Publishing is a small Catholic press working to restore traditional values by ‘reclaiming’ literature with lots of great books to choose from including many books perfect for homeschoolers.
Arx Publishing sent me a few review copies plus four of their books to offer my visitors here at Shower of Roses! One of the books Arx Publishing sent is Belisarius Book I: The First Shall Be Last by Paolo A. Belzoni. Our family is studying Early Medieval History this school year and it is one of the books suggested in the Connecting with History Rhetoric Level (Grades 10-12). Our oldest is only in 8th grade but I’m looking forward to reading this book myself and sharing it with the boys the next time we study this time period when they are in high school!
Belisarius Book I: The First Shall Be Last by Paolo A. Belzoni
(also available at Amazon in paperback or Kindle Edition – affiliate links)
Belisarius: The First Shall Be Last is a historical novel that recreates the early life of this amazing hero. Filled with action and intrigue, the book is replete with historical and religious detail drawn from ancient historians. The novel is a fascinating introduction to the Justinianic period the last gasp of the Roman Empire and the infancy of Christendom in both the East and West.
Centurion’s Daughter by Justin Swanton
(also available at Amazon in paperback or Kindle Edition)
Written and illustrated by master storyteller Justin Swanton, Centurion’s Daughter is a thoughtful and compelling journey to a little-known period of history when an empire fell and the foundations of Christendom were laid.
Our boys are still a little too young to read Angels in Iron but my husband, who loves reading about the Siege of Malta, purchased and enjoyed reading this book last year. In fact he recently loaned our copy to one of my younger brothers to read as well! It’s a great book for high school aged boys.
