North American Cambridge Latin Course Unit 2 Student's Digital Resource (1 Year)
Overview
The sixth edition of the North American Cambridge Latin Course presents a diverse and nuanced picture of Roman civilization and history, while providing clear and extensive language support. Moving on from the destruction of Pompeii, Unit 2 captures the drama of the daily lives of inhabitants of two provinces at opposite ends of the Roman empire –Britain and Egypt. Underpinned by decades of research, the book integrates grammar, vocabulary and history with illustrations and historically grounded stories, so that students start reading Latin from the very first page. The digital component includes tools and activities for front-of-class or independent study.
