I find this to be an objective overview of church history written for junior high level and up. I am currently using it as a part of our homeschooling curriculum with our gradeschool age sons. The diagrams, photos and mini-timelines throughout keep things in perspective. The end of chapter questions are great for review. I would highly recommend it for a study on church history.
