Synopsis

This book combines two subjects: geography and history, to create a new method of teaching. It began with the author's dissatisfaction with how schools taught history, which led her to invent the Temple of Time and the Historic Tree. The Temple of Time visually represents the passage of time from the time of Christ to the mid-1800s, and helps students understand how time and history flow together. The Historic Tree was an earlier invention of the author, and this book teaches how it can be used in conjunction with the Temple of Time for further historical analysis. Together, these systems form a new way to connect dates and events.
