Discover how Roman commanders outsmarted their enemies—while mastering Latin naturally through compelling historical narratives.
Why struggle with grammar drills when you can absorb Latin through thrilling military tales?
Strategemata revolutionizes Latin learning by adapting Sextus Julius Frontinus' classic military strategies into a carefully structured comprehensible input experience. Instead of memorizing conjugations, you'll follow Cato as he tricks enemy cities, watch Hannibal's brilliant deceptions, and witness Scipio's tactical genius—all while naturally acquiring Latin vocabulary and grammar.
What Makes This Revolutionary?✓ Hans Ørberg Method: Uses the proven comprehensible input approach from Familia Romana
✓ Real Roman Stories: Authentic stratagems that shaped the Empire
✓ Smart Progression: 30 chapters introducing ~300 essential vocabulary words
✓ Cultural Immersion: Absorb Roman military values and strategic thinking
✓ Proven Success: Based on the same method as Familia Romana
Chapters 1-10: Foundation building through Cato's city deceptions, Hannibal's naval tricks, and Caesar's political cunning
Chapters 10-20: Advanced strategy featuring Ventidius' battlefield psychology, Mithridates' escape tactics, and Themistocles' diplomatic genius
Chapters 20-30: Near-classical sophistication with complex military operations and nuanced strategic vocabulary
Each chapter includes contextual vocabulary support, strategic illustrations, and culminates with the original Frontinus text—which becomes naturally comprehensible after the adapted version.

Store description
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
