38 Latin Stories

Designed to Accompany Wheelock's Latin

by Anne H. Groton and James M. May

ordering information

Though intended as a supplement to the one-volume Latin course by F. M. Wheelock, this book is well suited for use in any introductory Latin course. All the stories in the book are based on actual Latin literature, with the stories simplified at first and made gradually more complex as the work progresses. Students will learn how classical Latin was really written as they become familiar with the works of the great Latin authors.
