Kinchin Smith and Melluish make learning Greek a pleasure

Many years ago a teacher whom I knew gave me a copy of this book. It helped me get started on learning Greek, and I did not have to unlearn anything I got from it. Further, the authors make the journey of learning Greek to be a pleasure. Kind of like volunteering to ride on a sail boat, but you do work in order to be on the boat. The authors do not claim that when you complete the book you will be able to read one of the histories, or a play of one of the dramatists. This is an introduction to Greek. Since I have not read Gavin Betts' book, I will not comment. One book that will get you ready for reading Greek, however, is An Introduction to Ancient Greek: A Literary Approach. I know a Greek professor who really prefers the reading approach, particularly An Independent Study Guide to Reading Greek. This book I linked is the study guide, but there are a couple of other books that must go with it, the reading selections, and also the grammar book, too. In this one is baptised, so to speak into the reading, and you learn grammar along the way. But for a first taste, that will not spoil you on learning Greek, Kinchin Smith and Melluish are to be recommended. Bring this book back!
