As the author of Vocabulary Book, Patricia Metzner has a lifelong passion for vocabulary and its role in communication gave a foundation for this book. Moreover it required another level of involvement to write a book that centers on a specific area of words: words with Latin roots. Although Patricia has never taught Latin, She found it to be the most useful course she has ever taken, and wants to share that experience. A book of 129 pages cannot replicate four years of classes and is not intended to. The books to improve vocabulary designed this comprehensive book to showcase the possibilities and spark further interest.
