Learn Latin : The Book of the "Daily Telegraph" Q.E.D.Series

Taken from the " QED" series of teach-yourself Latin articles published in the " Daily Telegraph" and the " Sunday Telegraph", this book aims to give its readers a basic knowledge of Latin in a short space of time. It covers just enough to give a basic understanding of Latin, and to enable readers to read and understand parts of the Bayeux Tapestry, the love poetry of Catullus, or Saint Jerome's " Vulgate". This book also aims to give a deeper understanding of modern European languages, such as English, French, Spanish, and Italian, through an understanding of the ancient language at their heart.
