Dorothy Mills' Ancient Greeks is online, Ancient Romans is also online at archive.org; do you want me to do this type of page count for it so you can compare them?


It is so nice of you to offer to do that Leslie. I would hate for you to go to that trouble just for me. When I do page counts I simply take the number of pages to be read and divide by how many weeks I’m planning for. Then I break it down further for daily readings. I hadn’t considered there was a more detailed way to do it by word count. Have I been doing it wrong?

Basically, I’m looking to fit the Mills book into 12 weeks, but I will likely need to skip some chapters to cut it down since it’s longer than Guerber. Based off what I read in a different thread, there are chapters about Roman culture that could easily be skipped. I’ve just got to figure out which ones those are and then I can calculate how many pages per week. My son is an older y6 and I think the higher level of writing in the Mills book will be more challenging than Guerber.
