Back for a Limited Time!
One of our all time best-selling collections, newly remastered & professionally packaged:

Want to make your kids' history and science studies
a GRAND ADVENTURE?

Then DON'T MISS this classic audio collection
that gives a whole new meaning to "living history"!

As my old college history professor was fond of saying,
"If you want to remember your history, don't mess around with names and dates...
Make it real! Make it alive! ... tell stories!"

That's just what this great collection of vintage radio program does. If you want your kids to
really remember some Grade A history and natural science, then "tune them in" to this CD!

We've packed this computer CD collection with over TWO HUNDRED educational and family-friendly
audio programs & features. It is a rich, overflowing collection of many, many hours of
satisfying and educational "adventures in listening" for the whole family!

First, travel back in time and experience historical events first hand with...

"You Are There!" re-created pivotal moments in history, by the novel idea of sending CBS radio reporters back in time to report on the events as they unfolded. You hear the roar of the crowds, the sound of the action, interviews with the historic characters, just like a "live" on-the-scene report. Talk about making your history come alive! These shows were painstakingly researched and are as close to the real thing as you can get. As the intro to each program proclaimed: "All things are as they were then, except... YOU ARE THERE!"

Here are the historic events you'll experience on this CD:

The Battle of Thermopolae
The Last Day of Pompeii

(a great three part epic!)

Smithsonian Museum. All are fascinating, engaging stories, presented with excellent sound quality.
