Reviews
The combined approach proposed by the authors does seem to be the best way for students to acquire a reading knowledge of Latin. I also like that the story is carried out through the book. This eclectic approach is what I've been looking for. ~Dr. Thomas H. Dinsmore, University of Cincinnati - Clermont College It is a new, creative approach, building on a tradition of good insights and based on a searching examination of the pedagogical issues relevant to college learners. ~ Claude Pavur, Saint Louis University I wholeheartedly agree with the authors' stated goals. A book that takes some of the supporting frame of the reading method, makes it age-appropriate , and combines it with efficient grammar study could replace both the grammar- and the reading-approach textbooks. ~Dorota Dutsch, University of California, Santa Barbara The qualities that Professors Kitchell and Sienkewicz are attempting to bring together into a single college text are very welcome as an alternative to the current choices. ~James M.
