| About the Authors | |
|
is a graduate of Texas Women's University with a degree in
elementary education. She has over 30 years of both public and private
teaching experience and home schooled her two children. Gail
presently teaches home school support classes in Latin, Math,
Composition and History. Gail's husband Doug is a pastor in
Redding, California. Their
children Bob and Linda have received excellent educations which
included a study of Latin and a great deal of music, Gail's other
specialty.
"It's our desire that the study of Latin become a standard in Christian education. To that end, we will continue to write Latin in the Christian Trivium. Latin is our passion, not our living. That allows us to write to please God rather than with the purpose of tickling the ears of man."

Mary Harrington has taught Latin for over
fifteen years at various levels, from Middle School aged homeschoolers
to community college classes. A mother of eleven, she
homeschooled her last four children, including in-depth study in
Latin. The two boys were accepted at the Naval Academy, having
scored 1400 on their SATs. Doug
and David have devoted themselves to the Military for the time
being.
Denise works as a physicist and is happily married. The
youngest, Stefanie, has her AA degree majoring in music, graduating
with Honors. She is married to a soldier, and they have two
beautiful baby girls.
Mary firmly believes their grounding in Latin greatly contributed to
their high test scores. Mary teaches at a Christian high school
at present, and continues working on more Latin books, and really,
really enjoys her grown children and grandchildren.
(picture to be inserted later) Latin In The Christian Trivium is her first book. It grew from Gail's and her frustration trying to teach Christian students, yet having to explain the humanistic viewpoint during the lessons presented in modern textbooks. E-mail Mary here. |
