Part one covers the basics of Greek grammar, including the alphabet, nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Part two focuses on more advanced topics such as participles, infinitives, and the subjunctive mood. Part three is devoted to reading and understanding Xenophon's works, with selected passages from his ""Anabasis"" and ""Memorabilia"" included for practice.Throughout the book, Whiton provides clear explanations of Greek grammar and vocabulary, as well as exercises and drills to help students reinforce their understanding. The book is intended for use by students who have already completed a basic course in Greek grammar and are looking to improve their skills in preparation for reading Xenophon's works.Overall, ""Three Months' Preparation for Reading Xenophon"" is a valuable resource for students of ancient Greek who are looking to improve their reading comprehension and fluency in the language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
