Summary: no-hassle answer key?? yeah right.
Review: I called the 800 number that another reviewer posted. As soon as I asked for an answer key, the customer service lady knew what book I was referring to. She asked me if I am faculty, to which I said no. I am an independent student. Sorry, I can't send it to you. Take it up with your bookstore. Harper doesn't care about getting independent students' money. They should have a sticker on it that reads "FOR SCHOOLS ONLY". Now I'll have to return this book, which is still en route in some mailbag, since the publisher is more concerned now about a metriculated student of latin trying to pass an A on homework. That's okay, there are plenty of other Wheelock's suppliments from other publishers instead of HARPER. I could double check the work myself, or try to find the answer key online, but I'd much rather get my money back and return the product out of spite. As you can see, I gave the workbook a "neutral" 3. I'm giving the publisher's customer service a 1.

Summary: Wheelock workbook not suitable for independent study
Review: I find I am about to echo the disappointment of another reviewer who found the publisher unresponsive to his request for a key to the workbook, although the publisher offers such a key. Like that reviewer, the workbook is useless to me without correct answers, as I don't want to practise unknown errors. I have gotten to chapter 5 of the excellent Wheelock textbook, using a key found on the internet which is for a previous edition but usable. However, I will probably return the workbook which is valuless if the exercises can't be corrected. I would surely advise other aspiring independent students to find any "teach-yourself" Latin book for extra practise, despite Wheeelock's brilliant textbook. If a key to translation weren't needed, one could make up for oneself any number of sentences to translate!

Summary: No you can't get the answer key
Review: I have tried e-mail( which was ignored ) and calling the 800 number. When I called Harpers Collins I was told that the answer key was available to professors only. When I told her that the front of the book informed me that independant study students could get the answer key, she informed that it was out of print and not available at all! She took my name and address and said if it ever became available I would get a copy. I asked when that might be and she told me she had no idea and thought that someone was putting on the internet. I bought the book based on the assumption I would be able to get the answer key. The book might deserve more than 2 stars but without the answer key it doesn't help me much.

Summary: Key Problems
Review: I have written the e-mail address twice for the key and have not had a response. This is shocking.
The workbook itself merely alerts you that you have to memorize, as a Bard, exactly word for word, the Wheelock 6e. I kid you not. One slight grammer mention has to be memorized and the work book "tests" you on your Barding skills. You mime Wheelock not Latin. He says; You say. Word for word.

Summary: Great Instructional Book
Review: I use this book for my college Latin course. Of course my professor is there to teach us, but as long as I have read the chapter before class I have a pretty good understanding of the material.

Summary: workbook redeemed....
Review: I'm not sure if my old review is going to be posted, but wrote it after a *very* negative encounter with an unfriendly customer service person, and have since received an e-mail, key access, etc., so all is redeemed. I guess I learned my lesson about writing reviews after talking w/ customer service reps... lol... I won't do it anymore.

Summary: You CAN get the Answer Key
Review: It just arrived in the mail today after six weeks of waiting. I wrote a letter stating my reasons for needing it and attested that I am not enrolled in a Latin course. Now I am going out today to buy my copy of Workbook for Wheelock's Latin. So, 5 Stars to HarperCollins for following through with sending me the Answer Key. ;>) BTW, No I will not send you a copy. Unfair? No. 1)It is copyrighted material of HarperCollins Publishers, 2) I don't know if you are enrolled in a class that uses this as a textbook, and 3) It's 64 pages long. I'm not photocopying or scanning all that!

Summary: 5 stars for customer service -- answer key sent on request
Review: Regarding previous reviews relating to the answer key, I wrote an email to the customer service department of Harper Collins via their website, and received the answer key (for free) from them in under 5 days. Although it seems that other users of this book have had problems with Harper Collins, I want to acknowledge their prompt response to my request. I can't pass any judgment on the content of the workbook as of yet -- I've only just started to use it.
