From the Bookshelf:

a bibliophilist's reading list: From the Bookshelf: Latin for the Illiterati by Jon R. Stone

From the book -
"...I began keeping lists of the Latin words I continually encountered in my reading. These lists began to grow over my several years of graduate study to the point that they filled a section of the weather-worn notebook I had used during my college days. It was at that point that I decided to type these lists into a handy reference book, not simply for my use but for the use of others likewise haunted."
--Jon R. Stone in the introduction
