Biographies & Memoirs     Reference Works     Historical Fiction     Textbooks

Books are only available to purchasers of V&R Social Studies for the semester following the purchase of V&R.  Books will be mailed by media mail and sent with a return postage paid envelope.  They must be returned within 30 days or the end of the semester which ever is first.  There is a limit of three resources at a time. Shipping costs must be paid in advance.  We take checks, money orders, cash or paypal. We are happy to make these books and videos available to students of V&R for the exact cost of shipping.  No hidden handling charges.  Books ( and videos ) are listed alphabetically by Title excluding the words 'a' and 'the'. We are sorry they are not arranged by topic.  Should we find time to categorize them they will be listed under the suggested topics for research listed in the V&R course.   This list is still changing so we won't categorize the books yet...but soon, Lord willing.  Any volunteers? So far I have the biographies and memoirs done. Much more to come. I have added some keywords in the far right column so you can do search of this page.
