"Excellent. Makes the ancient Greek language 'come alive' to the modernstudent."--Liane Houghtalin, Randolph-Macon College, "We were especially attracted to the continuously developing story sequence, which teaches culture and history together with grammar and syntax. Our course is intensive, so we will do 26 chapters in 15 weeks."--Victor Udwin, University of Tulsa, "Excellent, Comprehensive and Well-Supported Work."--Bruce R. Marino,Valley Forege Christian College, "I have taught Classical Greek from many other grammars in many different places, but Balme and Lowell's Athenaze is far and away the best of them all."--Howard Jackson, Pomona College, "I am using these texts [Athenaze and the OLC] and the students love them. They like the idea of being able to read immediately....I will continue to use these publications in my courses."--Sr. M. Regina Pacis, OSF, Franciscan University of Steubenville, "The only Greek text I know that I can imagine being used successfully in high schools as well as in colleges....The Classics community owes Maurice Balme, Gilbert Lawall, and the Oxford University Press a large debt of gratitude for producing this very useful text."--The ClassicalOutlook, "This extensively revised and expanded version includes many of the features of the original, but is much more stylishly produced and a great deal easier to read....Well worth looking into."--JACT Review, "My students and I have both enjoyed using this text. The readings are fun, and the integration of reading, grammar, and cultural materials is remarkable, far above anything in any other elementary Greek or Latin text."--George Houston, University of North Carolina, "This extensively revised and expanded version includes many of thefeatures of the original, but is much more stylishly produced and a great dealeasier to read....Well worth looking into."--JACT Review, "I have taught Classical Greek from many other grammars in many differentplaces, but Balme and Lowell's Athenaze is far and away the best of themall."--Howard Jackson, Pomona College, "Excellent, comprehensive and well-supported work."--Bruce R.
