Beautiful Feet Resources

Beautiful Feet Books proclaims the good news that history doesn't need to be dull. For over twenty years, the Berg family has guided families away from dry textbooks toward excellent literature. This approach imparts a genuine love of history and a regard for the writings of brilliant men and women. Their hope is that home school families can expose their children to the very best literature to improve their minds, expand their vocabularies, and "form their palate" for the noble and enduring. This section of our site offers the books needed for the various BF guides. To learn more about the curriculum itself, click here.
