Review Quotes

"The most intelligent and useful book that has come my way. It uses grammar - you have to - but is not dry, and it tells you things that you need to know from a foreign-language book in the first half-dozen lessons. It was a breath of fresh air."--Professor Norman Stone, author and historian
