What a great book! Very nice format. It introduces Classical grammar and builds your vocabulary at a very even pace, challenging enough, but if done consistently it is doable. I just finished volume 3. These series gave me enough grammar and vocabulary that I feel confident I can tackle Shan Han Lun on my own.
