Just curious as to what these guides include...

I only have the one for Herodotus but I haven't used it yet. It doesn't cover everything, only some books--the ones covered in the Kolbe syllabus. Each section seems to start with a part on identification of characters followed by questions. The end of the guide includes a matching section to review. The student guide is 25 pages long. The teacher guide is 50 pages long and includes all questions with answers.

Let me know if you have any more specific questions about this guide.

They are strictly comprehension questions. Because they have the answers, I have appreciated them when I haven't read the book:001_smile:. I've only used them twice, so don't chastise me too much!

I haven't used them, but I have given them a good looking over at a friend's house, and I must say I was impressed. They seemed quite thorough to me and as Susan said, having the answers is a big help for those times when you just can't read the book. That's also the main reason I bother buying the Sonlight IGs.
