The Rise of Democracy

This is an interactive ebook for a series on modern world history for high school students and teachers. This volume focuses on the rise of democracy in the modern world, including sections on ancient roots, the Enlightenment, England, and the French Revolution. Unlike almost all other textbooks, high school teachers wrote, designed, edited, and published this text to engage students in an in depth analysis of the story of modern world history.
