Collar & Daniell's Beginner's Latin Book: Problem
I've noticed in the pdf copy of this book downloaded from this site there are some pages missing: Page 83 and Page 143. Will anyone see to it please? It's regrettable to see such a good book incomplete... Thank you!

Textkit’s fantastic but like any other Internet entity its human cells are completely replaced every few years, resulting in not a little (‘nonnullus’?) tombstone talk (with not so much as a “you are number X in line …?)
For example, Mingshey drew attention Mar 10, 2008 to the fact that wrongly ordered pages in a downloadable file had never been righted (“To Jeff. D’Ooge pages in wrong order?). Inquit: “Can it be taken care of sooner or later, please.? The rest was silence.
In fact, nobody answers to the name of Jeff any longer. Benissimus, Bellumpaxque, Episcopus et many others are “whirled beyond the circuit of the shuddering Bear … to a sleepy corner? (pace T.S. Eliot).
Currently, our DOWNLOAD wizard is Edonnelly. I can only quote Vergil to express my admiration of his services: “deus nobis haec otia fecit?. For example:
http://www.edonnelly.com/google.html
However, I’ve recently learnt a lot of Latin from a downloaded beauty that seems to have eluded even the redoubtable Edonnelly, namely, Daniell’s New Latin Composition):
http://books.google.com/books?id=oLMAAA ... ygTUsLn6DA
Complete with Key:
http://books.google.com/books?id=mbMAAA ... ygTUsLn6DA
As for those missing D’Ooge pages, try Google Books:
http://books.google.com/books?id=W80RAA ... 9Dg&pgis=1
Google is not totally reliable either, but at least pages 83 and 143 are where you’d expect to find them.
Cheers,

No, indeed I added it because of your post! Most of the growth of the list comes from links that people send me. It's a great link, too, because I think the most valuable books on Google are those that have an answer key (especially composition books, since without the key you have little more than a collection of English sentences). And thanks also for the appellation "download wizard," though all I really do is try to organize all the links that I and others have stumbled upon.Interaxus wrote:Well, I see Daniell’s New Latin Composition + Key is in Edonnelly's beautiful list now. Did I miss it yesterday?
The lists:
G'Oogle and the Internet Pharrchive - 1100 or so free Latin and Greek books.
DownLOEBables - Free books from the Loeb Classical Library
