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. Unit 1 takes place in Pompeii, shortly before the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79, and the story follows the fortunes of Lucius Caecilius Iucundus, his wife Metella and their household. 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.
