I also noticed a world history text, Human Odyssey, in the same series. Did you use this as well, Kai? If so, did you do world history or US history first?
We used the Human Odyssey series for middle schoolers (there is an adapted version of this series called World History: Our Human Story for high schoolers) after A History of US and before American Odyssey. My son loved the Human Odyssey books so much that I read them to him like a bedtime story when he was 10.
After American Odyssey, we used the college text Ways of the World, though our homeschooling was interrupted after we finished the ancients, and we haven't finished it yet.
