I'm wondering if there is a teacher guide or study guide available for this text. I have a couple of his other programs (Am. Hist. and Economics) and they have study guides available. But I can't find one for the Govt. HELP???

A Teacher's Guide to A BASIC HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, published 2001 by the Aermcian Textbook Committee.
The back of the book gives the following email address -- Byron_Mallory@hotmail.com
I hope you can find it -- we found it quite useful.

The only one I'm aware of is within the Sonlight 200(?) core. I don't know if the price would be worth it to you or how many pages of the core guide are devoted to Basic American Govt.

Yeah, it is in the SL 400 level. I was hoping to find something else because of the cost and not using the rest of the core. But I might find a cheap TM somewhere. The American Textbook website doesn't show a study guide and I haven't found anything by Googling - hence, it's looking like SL is the only option.

This is the link to the page on the American Textbook Committee's website. It does look like they sell it still! It is about halfway down the page, in amongst all the texts, and it costs $10.
The website says that they have two in stock, for what it's worth.

OK, I must be missing it somehow. The only one I see is the TM for Basic History; but I need Basic Government.

Oh dear -- I'm thick. I'd blame it on lack of coffee, but this thread started yesterday afternooon!
I was reading HISTORY instead of GOV'T.
Please forgive me and my addledness!
I hope you manage to find something that works for you!

Oh, no problem! I had a similar experience a few days ago when I insisted to a friend that I did, indeed, have the Carson Govt. text to which she was referring. But apparently I was thinking of his Communism text which I *do* have - she couldn't figure out why I would want the Communism text...I'm wondering myself (must have picked it up at a book sale somewhere :-)
