The vocabulary for the text on each page can be found at the bottom, and explanatory notes are on the opposite page. A list of essential, high-frequency words is included at the beginning of the book. It is presumed that the student will already know this much Latin (a comparatively modest amount). The result is a text that is as accessible as it is rewarding. More advanced Latin students will perhaps find the the text's vocabulary and annotation something of an overkill, but this excellent book opens up the world through Caesar's eyes very effectively. Mueller's text is good, but Steadman's text is excellent and so affordable. Highly recommended, especially for AP Latin. Review: Cesar - This text is obligatory for a well rounded education. The Latin words important for each page are translated.

Caesar sic in omnibus, Pompeus in a hat
Superb!!!!!!!!! Astonishing! nothing like it this side of heaven. Thank God for Caesar and Pompey and Anthony and all of the other psychopaths who carved up the civilized world. Without them we should have nothing to slake our thirst for blood and gore. Caesar adsum iam forte Pompeus ad erat Caesar sic in omnibus Pompeus in a hat The book in question is good value, seriously! As ever excellent service by Amazon. Life would be dull without dear old Amazon.

Great resource for public school Level V Latin
This has been a great resource for me to guide my seniors who are in level five. I love the extras that are available online as well. I recommend this resource highly because my students have greatly benefited from this book and its ease of use.

At first glance, it looks good
Not to imply that upon further inspection it is not, but I haven't had a chance to use this book yet. I do like what I see so far though. Ordered it for some students who are going to be taking the new Vergil/Caesar AP exam and this has a lot of vocab help, mini-grammar lessons in boxes alongside, uses of the ablative case in Caesar, and a frequency word list. So far, so good.
