the major grammatical constructions of the Latin language are covered,
reinforcing what students have learnt from reading Latin; thorough
accessible explanations - no previous experience of writing in Latin
assumed; hundreds of examples - clear accurate illustrations of the
constructions described, all with full translations; over six hundred
practice sentences - graduated exercises leading students through
three levels of difficulty from elementary to advanced level;
