History in Close-Up Synopsis

One of a set of four History resources for CCEA Key Stage 3, 'The Age of Discovery' covers the period 1500 to 1800 and includes: The reformation; the Elizabethans; the Spanish Armada; The Ulster Plantation with local case studies; Guy Fawkes; Oliver Cromwell; James II and William III in Ireland; the Siege of Derry.

The four titles in the History in Close-Up Series give students a comprehensive understanding of the key themes that form the history of their part of the world. 'The Medieval World' covers the period to approximately 1500, while 'Union and Partition' covers the period from 1800 to present, with a major emphasis on the period leading up to partition.

The fourth book, 'The Twentieth Century' is offered as an alternative for the final year study, taking a theme-based approach to the changes that have come in the past one hundred years.
