First Greek Book
Here is a beginner's Classical Greek textbook. Just as the name says, First Greek Book is a beginning Greek textbook. Historically, this book was intended for American students of the age of about 15 who had already had at least one year of Latin. The book is intended for learners with no Greek experience and it prepares students to read Xenophon's Anabasis. It contains 80 lessons and the appendix lists rules of syntax, paradigms, principal parts of important verbs and vocabulary. After this book, the publishers intended students to then move on to Goodwin's Greek Grammar and First Four Books of Xenophon's Anabasis.
