Fagan
(An 11-volume compendium of history through the age of Napoleon)
1 Will and Ariel Durant's Story of Civilization excels in historical detail, biographical summary, breadth of coverage (from arts to science to society to war), descriptive precision, vocabulary command, artistic expression, and memorable remarks of insight. It is the product of a joint lifetime of dedication that will not likely be matched anytime soon. New sets are not currently available; however, at some associates of Amazon.com, used sets are available. Also, from time to time, individual volumes are republished. Parents may wish to encourage youth to complete the set in early high school years, to impart perspective, build vocabulary, and free later years for more specialized, challenging pursuits.
 
Note: The years of publication are generally those of the most recent edition.
