Details about Caesar: A Legamus Transitional Reader Legamus Reader Latin and English Edition:

The innovative LEGAMUS Transitional Readers have been adopted across the country as a proven bridge from the initial study of Latin via basal textbooks to the reading of authentic author texts.


Caesar: A LEGAMUS Transitional Reader serves as a comprehensive introduction to Julius Caesar and his writings and an ideal component for a Pre-AP* Vertical Teams curriculum. Students using this text in third year Latin will be well prepared for an AP* course—comfortable with Caesar’s style and vocabulary having read Latin from both of his Commentarii and familiar with the range of Caesar’s accomplishments.
