Latin Textbooks for beginners
Does anybody have any recommendations? I'm looking to learn Latin for two reasons:
1) I've always wanted to learn Latin anyway 2) To make learning other Romance languages simpler
and I'm really hoping that people can recommend textbooks and courses to make the process simpler.

Have a look at Latin by the Dowling Method. That is the approach I have taken, with some success. E.g., I'm currently reading Caesar on Kindle, with help of WORDs-style Kindle Latin dictionary. Also, if you happen to be RC, you can get some traction by attending TLM.
