While Ashdowne and Morwood’s (A&M) Writing Latin: An Introduction to Writing in the Language of Cicero and Caesar seems quite useful as a grammar review in intermediate/advanced Latin classes (high school or college level), it would not be my choice for a class in prose composition. ... Writing Latin (WL) while not avoiding all the pitfalls of its predecessors, clearly offers us an improved product. While I have serious reservations about the wisdom of the section on Latin Prose Style ... it offers a wholesome and beneficial grammar review, and the brevity and lucidity of its explanations is admirable. ... But one cannot help observing that, pedagogically, it has nothing especially new to offer. Heeft een supplement
