Hebrew & Greek - First Textbooks

Thinking back on my undergraduate days, I can't but help remember my first encounters with Greek & Hebrew. I can't believe how many additional books and resources have become available since I began my language studies in 1995. My first Greek textbook was New Testament Greek For Beginners - by J.Gresham Machen. My first Hebrew textbook was A Practical Grammar for Classical Hebrew by J. Weingreen. I'm curious to learn which textbooks gave the rest of the biblioblogging community their first taste of Greek & Hebrew studies.

A Brief Introduction to New Testament Greek by Samuel G. Green was the first grammar I looked at, but William Mounce's Basics of Biblical Greek is the one I actually started working through. Sadly, I stopped for some reason or another. But I have a biblioblogging buddy who has offered to help teach me Greek this year!
