Discovery Enterprises

Our goal at History Compass is to provide you, our valued customers, with stories, compelling and true, that give insight into our nation's history. We aim to publish carefully selected, well-researched books that help us better understand our past, give us context for the present, and shed light on our future.
Filled with original documents, letters, photographs, journal entries, maps, broadsheets, essays, newspaper accounts, and illustrations, each book tells stories through firsthand accounts of life, struggle, hardship, victory, and success in our nation's history.
We are excited about the opportunity to share our enjoyment of history with you. Please let us know if you have any questions or comments.
Specifically interested in books with these subjects or themes: history of the USA presented through the study of primary source documents, also historical fiction for younger readers.
