Ritchie's Fabulae Faciles: A First Latin Reader - Paperback

by John Copeland Kirtland Jr. (Editor), Frank Ritchie (Author)

Targeting intermediate Latin students who have a grasp of grammar and vocabulary, Frank Ritchie took the classic Greek myths of Perseus, Hercules, Jason and the Argonauts, and Ulysses and divided them into 100 easy-to-read stories. This edition is has been retypeset and reformatted. The notes, previously in the back of the book, have been converted to footnotes and are easier to find since they are now on the relevant page. Out of necessity, the notes have been edited and no longer match the notes from the original edition.
