I've made a list of books for Latin and Greek, generally related to the Direct-Method, Rouse, etc., that it would be good to source. Some of them already exist on google books, or other places, but some of them are proving hard to track down. Feel free to comment if you have located any, and I'll incorporate the link into this page.

Excellent books and post. Please, keep updating it when some of the not available books become accessible. Thanks.
Evan Millner in his web site, Latinum (http://latinum.mypodcast.com), has some of them in audio (Ora Maritima and Puer Romanus) and a lot of other resources. Puer Romanus is on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ACvGhpz0H0

Thanks very much for those links.
