Forty hand-drawn diagrams redraw the chart's crowded sections in clean, simple form, so you can see the structure before you go back to the original.Covers the stretch from Creation to Christ - the portion built on the Ussher chronology, including the patriarchal genealogies, the divided kingdom, the exile, and the four hundred silent years.Inside you'll find: Twenty self-contained studies, each readable in fifteen minutesForty simplified diagrams of the chart's densest panelsPlain explanations of Adams' colors, bands, and dating systemReview questions suited to family study or classroom useGenerous 18-point type and wide margins throughoutIdeal for homeschool families, Bible study groups, classical education students, seniors, and anyone who has admired the chart on the wall and wished for a way in.No prior history background needed.
