what's new with the latest edition of Stobaugh literature courses


Recommended Posts

I'm leaning towards using Stobaugh's World Literature and American Literature for high school. There are recently revised editions (2010-2012), so the previous (2005) edition is super cheap. So I'm just wondering if it's worth the extra money to buy the most current edition? Anyone know what has been changed? Thanks.

Here's Cathy Duffy's review of the revised edition: http://cathyduffyreviews.com/phonics_reading/stobaugh-literature-courses.htm

Thanks. Cathy Duffy says the new editions are easier for the parent and student to use, but she doesn't elaborate. Several reviews I've read complained that there weren't excerpts from the books included in the text of previous editions, which I'm not interested in. So I was wondering if the revisions just added excerpts (in response to this) or if their were bigger changes. Anyone know any more details?
