The Book was Used and Represented as New

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2019

Verified Purchase

OK, I get it, this is about the physical book not the content. Content was fine, as best as it goes. But the book was represented as new and the vendor sent a used book with a prior owners markings. This is a growing pandemic problem with Amazon and their third party vendors. BEWARE!

Now to the book. Back some sixty five years ago, yes Caesar was already dead, Latin II was a rigorous study with extensive grammar and vocabulary, and translating almost all of the Gallic Wars. Now this is a course for what I have no idea of. Words, pictures, scant grammar, a few vocabulary words. It misses the essence of classic Latin. It is in a sense a picture book intro to the language.

So between a vendor who misrepresented the sale and the almost child like presentation of the material, well you get the point.

For those wishing to self teach Latin

If you are reviewing this particular book you have probably bought and done Unit I. The series starts with cartoons and slowly goes to long passages of text. The story is somewhat addicting. By the time you finish Unit IV you will be sight reading Latin which is the authors goal. Romans generally read out-loud when reading even when alone. I found it helps the learning.

Good book also to use in a classroom setting.

Excellent book -- learning Latin is very hard and Cambridge makes it much more accessible. What really helps are the stories are all interlinked and you can figure out what's going on by context if you don't know the exact translation of each and every Latin word. You won't walk away a scholar after finishing this book but you will understand the writing you seem at museum exhibits of Ancient Rome.

Great text if you are using the series

Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2010

Verified Purchase

I wrote a review for the first book of the series and my thoughts about this book are pretty much the same. The book does a great job at reinforcing the "native" speaker paradigm. I find myself reading sentences and even entire passages without having to deconstruct the grammar to extract the meaning. That said, I have found that when those situations do occur, as is typical with Latin, that the grammar presented has given me more than enough information to figure out the meaning. I have yet to find myself trapped and out of ideas. I also have actually enjoyed the little stories that they string together for the books. They seem to do a nice job of taking little breaks from the main story then returning you to the action just when you begin to wonder what happened to so-and-so.

As a side note, I finished this book a few weeks ago and have been working through the third text in the series and I am very pleased to say that I am finding it as useful as the first two. Hope that helps!

Closest I've found to immersion

Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2013

Verified Purchase

I am teaching Latin to my 12-year-old daughter along with two of her friends, and this book has been perfect. My daughter did the first Cambridge course as well, but her friends went into this having only studied a little Latin from other more paradigm-centered sources. Latin is really fun this way, the storyline is interesting, you really gain confidence in translating and beginning to think in Latin. I like to stop once in awhile and review paradigms as well, encouraging memorization of conjugations/decensions, so I do supplement a little, but having tried several programs this to me is the best and retains the most interest, probably because it most closely follows the way people naturally learn language.

Mistaken purchase

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 10, 2019

I thought I was buying the UK version but it was the small US book. Listed as good condition but covered in scribbles and graffiti-rubbish! However I immediately went back on line and bought a UK book in good condition for buttons.

Learning Latin

Reviewed in Germany on March 6, 2013

Verified Purchase

I'd recommend this course, because there is a lot of material available you could also use in class.
Although the "Workbook" ,that complements the "Student Text" above, offers a lot of exercises, it should have more language drills for the students.
