Exposure to world literature can fuel a love for reading and round out reading comprehension. Your middle and high school students will love engaging with these texts that span ancient writers up to the Reformation. This package of literature would also be a great addition to any ancient history program to benefit any reader and lover of history. This package is also helpful if you have inherited a Veritas Transition Guide Volume 1 and you are looking for just the literature components. Please note that The Boys' and Girls' Herodotus is out of print and has been removed from this package. It appears to be available in digital format online. ~Rebecca

Description
Category Description for Veritas History Transition Guides
Not quite ready for Omnibus? These Veritas History Transition Guides are the perfect solution. For a spine they use the Pages of History volumes and the Veritas history cards. Add an excellent selection of classic literature and you have a one year classical world history survey course that will provide the perfect preparation for Omnibus.
Technically a consumable worktext, the Guides “feel” more like lesson plans. The lessons each have five sessions and follow a general format of reading and History Card assignments, discussion and comprehension questions, and projects (worksheets, writing assignments, art projects, or flashcard activities). The black-and-white books are full of artwork and drawings.
Volume 1 covers Creation through the Reformation and corresponds to Pages of History Volume 1 and the first three sets of History Cards. Volume 2 covers Explorers through the Present and corresponds to Pages of History Volume 2 and the last two sets of History Cards.
