Finally there is a reference section including a summary of all constructions, a comprehensive grammar, and a vocabulary of 1000 Latin words (with an additional list of 250 common poetic words for A2 verse passages). I wonder if the standard of difficulty is a little uneven too - some of the AS Cicero passages seem to contain quite a few A-Level 'problems'. The present indicative with dum (‘while’) is not normally retained in oratio obliqua in the earlier part of the Classical period. No Latin textbook, or any textbook, can match John Taylor's for its ability to explain clearly and concisely, or for the depth of understanding it instills.The English-Latin sentences, which are an alternative to the Cicero unseens, are of the type already met in the previous chapters. The only one that came anywhere near this was Latin As Literature by Anthony Verity, long out of print and too advanced in any case for present-day Advanced students. My only criticism would be that the practice passages at the end of the AS section are often harder than the actual AS papers themselves.

Please check the title of the book to determine if it should include any access cards, study guides, lab manuals, CDs, etc. P. xi: Aspect is defined as “the expression of type of time”: it is, rather, an aspect of the action of the verb, unrelated to time. Although this is not really a criticism, as it's far better to be over prepared than underprepared). P. xii: Elision is defined as the “process by which the final vowel or syllable of a word is in effect knocked off”: in fact it is only the vowel which is knocked off (together with nasalizing m) leaving any preceding consonant intact.

However, in spite of the imperfections, there is no other book that I know of with the same aims, objectives and (most importantly) examinations-oriented content as this one. Complex grammatical points which have been met at GCSE are recapitulated using examples as well as description/explanation. This new edition is brought in line with the new OCR specifications and benefits from a completely redesigned layout, with added colour and images.

It only indicates such ideas when used with the verb ‘to be’, actually expressed or omitted but to be ‘understood’.

To conclude, as I have said, the fact that the book does not have any obvious or natural competitor will in itself ensure healthy sales, if mainly in those parts of the UK and the rest of the world that use the OCR specifications.

John Taylor has again put students of Latin (and their teachers) in his debt with this volume, a companion to his 'Greek Beyond GCSE' that follows the same format.

The first part of the book introduces new constructions and the translation of sentences from English to Latin, with practice passages for unseen. Despite lack of funding and institutional support, not since the mid-twentieth century have comics in the region been so dynamic, so diverse and so engaged with pressing social and cultural issues. Each point is carefully explained and followed by five Latin sentences to be translated into English and five English sentences to be put into Latin (except at the very end, where remote/closed conditions in indirect statement are evidently judged too difficult for the latter exercise). There is, however, a new—and very useful—glossary of grammar terms just before the final vocabulary lists.
