[B-Greek] Mounce versus Croy

Hello Stephen,
As a mere student I've read every imaginable book/booklet/mailing/text on 
Biblical/Koine/Hellenistic Greek that I can afford. I've been studying both 
formally (3 years college) and informally (Logos computer resources and 
print resources) for about 8 years. I have of course read Mounce and Croy. 
Both have much to recommend for sure but I genuinely love Croy's book. I 
think the beginning student should absolutely be required to get Sam 
Lamerson's book and Ray Summer's book. After that Croy is among the best, 
but maybe you should consider Gerald Steven's New Testament GREEK PRIMER. 
Excellent book and there's a follow-up intermediate text.
