As so many others have pointed out, if you're studying Latin, do not make this your primary tool for learning. However, this is a great resource to include in your studies. Those little bits of trivia and history are great, I would look at this as an exaggerated version of Cliff's Notes or Spark Notes.
It's easy to read, easy to understand, and it isn't muddied with too much explanation. Great for beginners, perhaps not as interesting to advanced learners.

Maybe another time. Couldn't commit to learning declensions. Enjoyed the pronunciation guide even though I will not retain it.

I actually really enjoyed this book, especially if your interest in Latin is derived from an interest in ancient Rome.

A nice book, although a large chunk of information is only suitable for US readers. Otherwise, it's a quick rundown of things you already know if you've been into this 'frugal thing' for a while -- or things you should know even if you currently make a million a year.

Basic stuff, some neat ideas, can easily be used as a reference book.
