5.0 out of 5 stars
The best Latin text book series around
I was instructed in Latin under both the Cambridge and Oxford texts, but Ecce Romani is much better. The grammar lessons are taught in a sensible order (despite what other querulous book reviewers may say), the daily life is well-rounded and detailed, and unlike most books, the student is shown how to really read the Latin (accent marks as well as macrons are supplied)...

Poorly written
This book was poorly written. The grammatical concepts were hard to understand. The book continues to follow the story of the Cornelii family, with the annoying pest, Sextus, and the stuck-up Aurelia. I do not recommend this book to anyone.

This review is from: Ecce Romani, Set, Bks. 3-4 (Hardcover)
I was instructed in Latin under both the Cambridge and Oxford texts, but Ecce Romani is much better. The grammar lessons are taught in a sensible order (despite what other querulous book reviewers may say), the daily life is well-rounded and detailed, and unlike most books, the student is shown how to really read the Latin (accent marks as well as macrons are supplied). This way, the student becomes more accustomed to properly stressing certain syllables and will fare much better in scansion and poetry later. The illustrations are not bad either! Finally, although some may find characers irritable, they are no worse than any other Latin textbook on the market. I highly recommend this series.
