This is actually a follow up to the thread about adding Biblical content to SOTW. I thought I'd just start a new thread so anyone who wasn't following that thread may peak in here. I found a timeline a Sam's Club that I wanted to tell you all about. It is published by Master Books. It is called Adams Synchronological Chart or Map of History. It is absolutely beautiful. It is based on James Ussher's chronology (The Annals of the World) so it dates creation at 4004 BC. This is the chronology that we use in our home. It goes all the way to 1870 AD.
It folds out accordian style and is 25 feet long. It has gorgeous, realistic artwork depicting a Biblical time-line from Creation and a detailed historical time-line. So, for instance, you can look up Isaac and see what was going on in Egypt during his lifetime. It comes with a key that can be used to create lessons. There is also a Teacher's Guide available from Master Books but they didn't have that at Sam's Club. You can actually download the Teacher's Guide from the Master Books web site.
Here is a link to it:
www.nlpg.com/store/MB.htm
On the right side of that page there is a link to the timeline. It will be easy to find. I paid $23.00 for it at Sam's. It's a little more at the web site but there is free shipping.
Just wanted to share. It's really beautiful. I'm going to get one that is not bound for our Sunday School classroom. You can buy one that is bound or not.
