Neumann’s Lingua Latina: A College Companion fills a gap in the supplementary materials currently available for Lingua Latina. Following the spirit of Orberg’s method, the Companion helps students manage and systematize the details they encounter in Lingua Latina. This aid is particularly vital for college or other students who must get through the text on schedule and do not have the luxury of taking requisite time to assimilate Latin by the natural method espoused by Orberg. Classroom and home-school teachers alike will find the Companion helpful for organizing class sessions and activities, and self-taught students should find it an invaluable tool that confirms their progress through Lingua Latina.
