This volume makes Books I-XII of Vergil's Aeneid enjoyable and easy to follow and may be used in conjunction with the Latin text of Vergil's Aeneid in high school classrooms.
Labors of Aeneas offers enhancement of a student's understanding of basic Roman cultural myths and attitudes by an unusual path.
