Excerpt from A First Latin Book
Forms. The forms are all given in the body of the book (except the unimportant list of numerals), and never in a mass, unless the parts of the mass are alike. There is much repetition, to show likeness or contrast (as of the active, when the passive is given). This takes space, but lessens labor. Every set of forms is put to immediate use in a context which enforces its meaning.
The Reading, Matter is largely in dialogue; both' for greater naturalness, and to fix the persons of the verb.
Syntax. The system is of extreme simplicity. Its categories are merely answers to the questions: What are the ideas which the Romans expressed by the cases? What are the ideas which the Romans expressed by the moods In a given case, the student has only to know what the Latin means to name the construction.
A Summary of Syntax is given immediately after the Supple mentary Reading. It may be useful by way of review with this reading.

Excerpt from A First Latin Book
This book is the product of class-room experience and practice, at my own hands and those of many other teachers who have used it in mimeographed form, and, in the present year, in advance sheets. This is the fifth revision of the original draft.
The method employed in the past in teaching beginners in Latin has been either to make them attack a piece of continuous narrative, written for mature Roman readers, and necessarily without grammatical arrangement, or to furnish them with exercises made up in the main of short bits, without connection. But let us suppose, now, that we could command the services of some ancient Roman teacher. What should we tell him that we wanted for a First Latin Book, or, - and this is the same thing, - what would he, if a good and practical teacher, think of on his own account? A beginning with easy words, standing for familiar ideas connected with home life. The opening sentences should be simple and interesting, - about the dinner, good or bad, the servants, the boy and girl friends, and the like. A fruitful topic, next, would be the school, with its work and play. In time the sentences would group themselves into paragraphs, and paragraphs into stories, making up the Reading Matter of a lesson, and setting the Roman before the student as a living being belonging to a living people.
Then the story would become a "serial" from lesson to lesson, still remaining natural and interesting, and thus easy to read and to remember. For its subject, a hint might be taken from Horace's mimic battle (Letters, I, XVIII, 58-64), in which boys delighted to fight Actium over again, "till victory crowned the one side or the other." If the teacher should decide to have the boys in his classes read and write accounts of a mimic war, he would naturally use many of the words and phrases in a great general's story of his conquest of Gaul.
