kloumc Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Can anyone who has seen the new WTM shed some light as to what SWB recommends for rhetoric-level ancient history? History of the Ancient World + what? Thanks :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloumc Posted May 27, 2009 Author Share Posted May 27, 2009 Does the lack of response mean that the newest edition of WTM isn't out yet? I couldn't find it at our recent state's home school convention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 The book is out; I saw it at the local bookstore. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, so I'm afraid I can answer your question. Regards, Kareni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I don't know if this is helpful, but it looks like History of the Ancient World for half of the week and a Study of the Great Books for the second half of the week. She says you'll want The Timetables of History on hand, along with DK's History of the World as 2 additional reference books. A minimum of 8 great books should be read, but 12 is better. This is just a skimming--My oldest is just entering the Logic stage :001_smile:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
