This is a pretty good book. Especially with all the notes and a FULL dictionary in the back, it is very resourceful and handy. Not to mention the introduction to each lesson which give LOTS of background information.

Synopsis

Roman history in Latin readings sustained by English prefaces and generous annotation, Aeneas to Augustus is paper-bound and lithographed from typescript while practice tests its effectiveness. Prose (Part I) and poetry (Part II)—each Part a term's work with a full historic span—may be alternated during a year's course without losing continuity. Latin readings approximate a class hour's needs; each Part forms a sequence of graduated complexity; a vocabulary is included; and literary and linguistic annotations will interest both beginning and advanced students.
