Many language books hit you with all the grammar at the beginning, making it overwhelming for many people to begin learning a language. The 'Just In Time Grammar' approach doesn't do this. Instead, it gradually introduces new grammar when it is needed and not before, where it would serve only to intimidate students. This book has been engineered to give students a firm foundation in the language of Latin and readies them to pursue higher-level skills more confidently and effectively. It contains exercises at the end of each chapter, where the student(s) is/are encouraged to practice what they have just learned by translating not only Latin into English, but also English into Latin. This gives them a deeper understanding of the basics of the language and this is what, we believe, sets this book apart from other Latin books.
