Are there differences in editions I should look out for when buying CW used?

This would be Classical Writing Homer A-is it important to have the newest edition, or are there very little differences in editions? Thanks!

I seem to remember there is, and that the first edition came back as a bit too much. You might want to ask over on the CW forums.

look very active. I did find out from old posts that the Core is unchanged since the beginning, so that was helpful at least. Still wondering about the Instructors Guide and Student Wkbk.

Found it! It wasn't Homer. Here is what Carolyn said about Homer on the yahoo group:


As grammar issues come to light, or other things need changing, we make updates. Since the changes are minor, we've left the copyright date the same.


It was Diogenes that was changed:



The original Diogenes: Maxim was a pretty hefty workload. We've made
some lessons optional, and eliminated other lessons so that it will be
more feasible to complete in one school year, with some time left over
for poetry studies.

That's about it for the changes!

Thanks so much for seeking that out for me! :)
