An excellent way to learn or review.......2007-04-16
I was wary at first of buying this because of only one sketchy amazon review.
Aside from the cheesy country music that plays during the lessons every now and then, this is an excellent program that makes complex topics in united states history very simple. I wish they had this for every school subject. The quizzes with 100 multiple choice questions per disc (6 discs in all) are great review, and the questions are very SAT II-like.
One warning though, you won't find every single topic in u.s. history. This software only culls the most prevalent topics in high school courses.
The old-ness of this program and its interface make this and its ancillaries (dictionary+encyclopedia) very easy to use. All you have to do is plug and play.

Amazon.com Product Description
Complete U.S. History (1500-1895) combines three interactive, comprehensive software programs on the historical beginnings and growth of the U.S., from the founding of America to the Wild West experience. The software teaches history interactively through a multimedia platform, using movies, role-playing, historical photographs, and other primary source materials.
In Founding of America, experience the true colonial experience by role-playing four different characters with unique backgrounds and goals in life as Americans. The role-playing simulation covers American history from 1630 through 1820, and the decisions you make as your chosen character are based on real American historical challenges of the time period. You decide the fate of your character and how he or she responds to historical events, such as the Revolutionary War, the Boston Tea Party, and the War of 1812.
The Colonial period of American history comes to life with The Colonial America Encyclopedia. Filled with biographies, detailed descriptions about colonial life, maps, videos, audio narration, and primary source materials, every inch of colonial life is uncovered through an interactive platform. This in-depth software program follows the birth of America's original 13 colonies, through the Revolutionary War, and up to the formation of the Union. With the Wild West Encyclopedia, explore everything from Lewis and Clark's expedition to the Pacific Northwest to the battle at Alamo and the building of railroads. This title features a huge collection of historical photographs, video clips, and primary reference materials on the Wild West era.

This is A GAME!.......2003-02-01
This is a game . Its educational value does not live up to what is promised on its cover, very misleading. What primary resource material was it talking about? It was a game and if thats what you want to get your kid get civillization III, not only does it have more educational content , it also is more realistic and helps them learn the complexity and hardship alongside history and structure. In other words this was a waste of money !
Sound great for reports.......2002-08-25
This looks great as I plan on teaching 1750 - 1900 this year to my homeschooled children. I especially like the idea of maps, that is if I can print them off. It is good to have maps pertaining to that era specifically. The only reservation I have would be the systems requirements, as I have XP but I can use it on our Windows 98 I am sure.
Looks great!!
