Description

The COMPLETE LATIN BOOK & CD PACK gives you all the grammar, vocabulary and practice you need to read and understand Latin comfortably and accurately.

For the first time key Latin texts are included on audio to give you extra depth and context and to bring the Classical World to life.

You'll start by learning proverbs, especially those taken from Erasmus's collection, THE ADAGIA. You'll then quickly move on to graded readings drawn from Martial, Vergil, Caesar, Cicero and other classical authors. This book is based on real Latin, not made-up sentences and stories.

You will be able to:

- Read Classical Latin with confidence

- Learn to write, understand and pronounce
