Reviews
" Learn to Read Latin both smooths and speeds the way to true Latinity. The authors achieve a standard for the whole rest of the field in breadth and depth of outlook, to say nothing of accuracy in and love for the subject."--Tim Markey, Ph. D., Worcester Academy "I believe that Learn to Read Latin is far better than Wheelock's Latin and any other text known to me. The book contains nearly everything a student trying to learn to read a piece of Latin literature might need to know."--Jonathan Master, Emory University "Offering crystal clear explanations of Latin vocabulary, morphology, and grammar and an unparalleled wealth of exercises and unadapted selected readings, LTRL has rightly become the first choice of teachers and students across the English-speaking world."--Jonathan L. Ready, Indiana University, "The depth of Keller and Russell's treatment of their subject cannot be emphasized enough. This text can be used with confidence by teachers of all levels, from those who prefer to keep things simple to those who want more complete and detailed explanations for vocabulary, morphology, and syntax."-- Bryn Mawr Classical Review " Learn to Read Latin both smooths and speeds the way to true Latinity. The authors achieve a standard for the whole rest of the field in breadth and depth of outlook, to say nothing of accuracy in and love for the subject."--Tim Markey, Ph. D., Worcester Academy "I believe that Learn to Read Latin is far better than Wheelock's Latin and any other text known to me. The book contains nearly everything a student trying to learn to read a piece of Latin literature might need to know."--Jonathan Master, Emory University "It is simply outstanding. My students read Latin far more precisely and far more readily than they ever did when I taught Wheelock or Moreland and Fleischer. I am especially pleased by how able they are to attack a piece of difficult Latin which they have never seen."--Dana Burgess, Whitman College "Offering crystal clear explanations of Latin vocabulary, morphology, and grammar and an unparalleled wealth of exercises and unadapted selected readings, LTRL has rightly become the first choice of teachers and students across the English-speaking world."--Jonathan L.

Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (550,392)
- r***g (242)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook was "nearly new" and "as described" in listing. The advertised price was fair and a good value. Unfortunately, the seller's shipping partner was very slow to get the book packaged and shipped. Shipping took too long, and the tracking info gave no reliable info on shipping date, time in transit or expected delivery. Seller did everything right, but their shipping partner needs improvement. I recommend this seller to other eBay buyers....... just make sure you're okay with the shipping terms.
- e***u (283)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.
- e***n (392)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive.
