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
