5.0 out of 5 stars A good review, October 19, 1999

By	Suzanne E. Mcbroom "luvbunny13" (Potsdam, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This series almost entirely bases its learning technique around translations, introducing new grammar concepts as they appear in the readings. This is a very different approach from most languages, but for teaching Latin, it is a very effective one. If you are getting back into Latin and familiar with the rudimentary concepts I would recommend starting with book 2. For beginners, book 1 is a must- I promise it's worth it. It's fun to read and easy to follow along with. I am looking forward to learning from book 4 in this series.

4.0 out of 5 stars Understanding + Complicated, February 17, 2000

By	Jason (United States) - See all my reviews

This book is the best out of the other Latin learning books. It clearly states what to do, how to do it, and when to do it. Since I'm a teacher at Franklin Learning Center High School, we use Cambridge books in all of my classes. So, I highly reccomend this book for beginner learners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Homeschoolers will love this!, April 2, 2007

By	C. A. Heim "Dominican" (Oil City, PA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am currently teaching Latin to homeschoolers using this series. It is a great step-by-step Latin text book. We only get together once a week for an hour. We find it fun, interesting, and well put together. The worksheet masters truly help to round out the books!
