Susan in TN Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Dh has already asked if we can "share". I finished book 1 last night (the "boring" library copy). I love the maps and the little "what's going on here" margin notes. It was a splurge, but one totally encouraged by dh. :lol: Quote
Michelle in MO Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 It would be interesting to see your edition. I thought I read something about another edition of Herodotus on these boards last week that sounded more exciting than our version. Thanks! Quote
Michelle in AL Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 I'm the one who complained last week about not being able to understand Herodotus. I bought the Landmark version this weekend and now I really enjoy it. I've finished book one so far. The maps help so much. Every time I come to a new place I look it up, and now I can understand it. Here's a link to the Landmark version: http://www.amazon.com/Landmark-Herodotus-Histories/dp/0375421092/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208905227&sr=8-1 Quote
Michelle in MO Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I just placed an order today with Barnes & Noble; now why didn't I think of ordering this! Thanks for sharing, Michelle! You can never have too many books! :D Quote
Leah Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I ordered one last week after the discussion as well. Mine came yesterday and I keep browsing and loving it. :) Thanks to the kind soul who enlightened us! Quote
Susan in TN Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 :) Thanks to the kind soul who enlightened us! Three Cheers for Janice! Hip, Hip, Horray! Quote
Teddi Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 This looks fantastic!!! Thanks for posting about it. Quote
Hoggirl Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I just have to know if something such as this would have always tickled us pink! I mean, I am trying to determine when I got more excited about a new book/homeschool book than, say, a new pair of shoes!:lol: But, I am happy you like your new book! :) Quote
Teddi Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 Susan, Mine showed up today and I'm soooooooo pleased!! Cynthia, A new pair of shoes still comes in a close second. LOL! Quote
