Synopsis

This set of exercises can be used alone or in conjunction with other Latin courses and provides all the practice a pupil can need in preparing for the Common Entrance Level 1. Written as a complete course under the name "Ab Initio" by the ISEB Chief Setter for Latin, these exercises answer the prayers of those who find that the available Latin courses do not contain sufficient practice material. Brief grammatical information accompanies the exercises and a complete vocabulary of Level 1 words is included at the back.
