History of Greece
After the "Outlines," Keightley was urged by the educator Thomas Arnold of Rugby School to undertake work on a series of mid-sized histories to be used in schools. "History of England" (1837–39), 2 vols., although based on John Lingard, was intended to counteract that writer's catholic tendencies. Other textbooks followed: "History of Greece" (1835); Rome (1836); Roman Empire (1840); India in (1846–7). His "History of Greece" was translated into modern Greek. Keightley also compiled as a study tool "Questions on Keightley's History of Greece" and Rome (1836), and one on English history (1840) consisted of a long list of history quizzes organized by chapter, for young students of his Roman, Greek, and histories.
