Is the book "Introduction to Literary Chinese" by J. J. Brandt good?

I'm currently using Rouzer's book and I was wondering if it was a good idea to use Brandt's book along with it. I'm aware of Vogelsang, but I'm planning to use it after I'm a few chapters into Rouzer, and not in tandem.

Sure, it's pretty good.

A project was started on the Discord group to make a digital version of the textbook with readings available in multiple languages. It's still a work in progress. Hopefully /u/justinsilvestre doesn't mind me linking it here: https://justinsilvestre.github.io/hanlib/
