About this title

Review

"This is the best-looking survey course material I have seen for intermediate Latin students. It is not only attractive in presentation, but also an excellent grammar review for my students."--Bette J. Ruellan, University of San Francisco "Very much suited to the needs of the inexperienced student both in content of the selection and in practical exercises on grammar."--Sister Therese M. Dougherty, College of Notre Dame "This is the best that I have even used in an elementary Latin sequence. It strikes a good balance between the 'inductive' and 'deductive' approaches....The readings...are compelling and appropriately challenging."--Brenda Fineberg, Knox College "Exciting! Just what I've been looking for--selections and layout are appealing and conducive to student success."--Marilee Consalvo, Sacopee Valley High School, Cornish, ME "Just perfect for our students' first reading course. They will be delighted by the selections, as well as informed. I am particularly pleased with the exercises that complement the readings."--Alysa J.
