This book has a fun, swinging style that breezily takes you through the introductory nuts and bolts of Latin. To advanced students it may seem simple and silly, but this is just right for people just learning Latin, peripherally curious about it, or are trying to cope with the first year or two of deciphering case systems. The tables in the back are really helpful (even to a student of 3+ years!) as well.
