Ad Infinitum: A Biography of Latin by Nicholas Ostler

by John Timpane [The Philadelphia Inquirer (MCT)]

[16.Nov.07] :. This is the story of Latin, and like the story of language itself, it's really the story of people -- what they did, what they dreamed, how they lived and died. It's told as well as any novel and is as gripping.
