Default Famous Men of Rome produced by other publisher?

An edition of Famous Men of Rome is now produced by a publisher called Yesterday's Classics. Is the Memoria version of this book being discontinued?

I'm sure one of the folks at MP will reply to confirm this, but - as MP has just come out with the new edition of the book, with beautiful color illustrations, I can't imagine they'd be taking the book out of print now!

The original Famous Men... series is in the public domain, so just as you can buy any number of editions of Shakespeare or Dickens, you can also choose between different editions of [I]Famous Men of Rome.[/I]

HTH!

Default Famous Men of Rome will stay in print

We plan to keep the Famous Men of Rome in print indefinitely. I am not familiar with their version, but we just released a new version with full color illustrations.

Excellent...the Memoria one is the version we selected for our school, since Greenleaf seems to have died.
