Why did our teachers tell us it is a "dead language", and not how useful it would be in real life?' Janie Hampton, author. 'The perfect book for anyone who, like me, wishes they had understood Latin at school. ![]() ‘Elegantly presented, entertaining, and educational.’ Ruth Downie, author. ![]() It is a fantastic idea and looks absolutely beautiful.’ Celia Rees, author and former English teacher. 'Latin can be fun, who knew? A real must for anyone learning Latin or interested in language. I genuinely LOVE this book. ‘This delightful illustrated book will serve two purposes: the straightforward English derivatives will help students remember their Latin vocabulary, and the recondite ones will give a head start for the Scrabble board or cryptic crossword.’ Dr John Taylor, author of Essential GCSE Latin. Everyone should have a copy.’ Dr Daisy Dunn, author of In the Shadow of Vesuvius. ‘A handsome and lively introduction to Latin through its core vocabulary and derivatives. ‘The narrator of a recent French historical novel muses: ‘My whole life I owe to Greek… Declensions proved to be the instrument of my ascent.’ Pari passu and mutatis mutandis, that surely is what every reader will say after reading, marking and inwardly digesting Caroline Mackenzie’s brilliant Latin Compendium.’ Professor Paul Cartledge, University of Cambridge. I wish I’d had this book when I was learning Latin.’ Caroline Lawrence, author of The Roman Mysteries.
