Bradley's Arnold Latin Prose Composition

This frequently reprinted volume is the sine qua non for all who would attempt to write faultless classical Latin prose. It is impressively detailed in explaining syntactical nuances, in its exemplification, and in the range of its exercises (both sentences and continuous proses) compared to any other prose composition text books.

The original version by Thomas Kerchever Arnold was thoroughly revised by G.G. Bradley, Master of Marlborough, later Master of University College, Oxford, and Dean of Westminster. This revision was so comprehensive that the book became commonly known as Bradley's Arnold. In 1938, J.F. Mountford, who was a Professor of Latin at the University of Liverpool, along with a team of eminent young classicists, including Stanley Bonner and Frank Walbank, undertook a further ongoing revision and added an appendix of 125 passages for continuous prose composition. Mountford’s Bradley’s Arnold remains an essential sourcebook.
