Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Puer Romanus
The syntax proceeds on a certain plan; one section is taken up after another and there is plenty of repeti tion. The book has been tried in the class-room and changed where experience showed that to be desirable. The subject-matter has been taken from ancient authors where it was possible, but the final form is the work of those whose names are on the title-page. Mr. Jones has been responsible for the first twenty two pages. The authors wish to acknowledge in no perfunctory manner the kindness of their colleague, Mr. E. Broome. With a readiness to help his friends which only they can fully appreciate, he has bestowed much skilful care upon the illustrations. These are an essential feature of this little book. They also wish most heartily to thank Mr. A. W. Spratt, Fellow and Tutor of St. Catharine's College, for his careful reading of the proofs.
