This is a first-year Classical Attic text; I saw it listed recently in a
catalog as still available (although it may have been a used-books list);
editors were Nairn & Nairn (I don't remember the initials; I think it was a
husband-wife team); it's at least 40 years old (which of course is neither
a positive nor a negative index of anything).
Along the same lines, someone who has developed reasonably solid Koine
Greek competence who wants to develop an ability with Classical Attic could
do worse than work through the JACT course book, _Reading Greek_ (published
by Cambridge). I use it as a first-year textbook in Attic, and it will not
do very well as a self-instructing text for one who's not had any previous
Greek, but I think that one who already has Koine could learn classical
Attic relatively painlessly and enjoyably with it: its reading selections
are all interesting and the graduate into more and more completely original
texts from Aristophanes, Demosthenes, Herodotus, Plato, Euripides, and ends
with Homer's Odyssey 6. One who works through it completely should be able
to manage with Platonic dialogues, Aristotle, and what not with reasonable
facility.
