We have the Introduction to Classical Studies 3 year guide and I'm wondering if there are any differences between that and the new guides. Is there a benefit to buying the new or is it basically the same material distributed differently? Just trying to budget for next year. Thanks

Anyone? Please? I don't want to duplicate a purchase.

I also have the 3 year intro to classical studies guide. I purchased the Christian Studies year 1 book this year, and it is significantly more detailed than the Bible portion of the 3 year guide. IMO, the 3 year guide is a nice overview, but the new guides are much more comprehensive and thorough. I don't have the FMR guide or the Greek Myths guide, but I think they are similarly more detailed the 3 year guide. Perhaps someone else will add their 2cents worth.

Hope you find what suits your needs and budget.

As the previous poster suggested all of the guides for the particular courses are very much more detailed than the Introduction to Classical Studies Guide. It covers the same material, just in greater detail.
