Excerpt from First Latin Book
The vocabulary comes mainly from Caesar, and consists of those words that occur most frequently; many words are from View? Romae and some few from Livy and Cicero. In the latin-english vocabulary, derivations and etymologies are given, in the hope that observant pupils may gain some useful knowledge, but it is not intended that they be dwelt upon in class.
