First Year Latin by Charles Jenney

A very no-nonsense, old-fashioned Latin textbook. Accompanied by a workbook. Preferable to the Oxford Latin Course in that it introduces all six declensions immediately, then focuses on simplified sentences. Contains a decent Latin-English/English-Latin translation dictionary in the back.
