Critics Review
Declensions have for some proved to be the instrument of their ascent. Pari passu and mutatis mutandis, that will indubitably be true for every lector of Caroline Mackenzie’s brilliant Latin compendium. * Paul Cartledge, University of Cambridge, UK *
Carpe verba! (Grasp the words!) A hugely fun and useful tool for Latin learners. I wish I’d had this book when I was learning Latin. * Caroline Lawrence, Ex-President of the Joint Association of Classical Teachers, UK *
This is just the ticket for GCSE students and crossword addicts alike. * John Taylor, University of Manchester, UK *
