This review is from: The Cuthbertson Verb Wheels: French (Paperback)
For those who have not seen one of these, it is indeed a wheel. It is turned to give the full conjugations of every type of verb, regular and irregular that I can think of. It also has an index on the back of a great number of other verbs indicating which verb on the wheel serves as a model. It is an ingenious device which has been around since the 1930's--even before I began studying French :>) It is flat and is about the size of a trade paperback--so it can easily be carried around.

This review is from: The Cuthbertson Verb Wheels: French (Paperback)
I first purchased a cuthbertson verb wheel in the 1970's, when I was still a high-schooler studying french. I found it invaluable in constructing grammatically correct sentences, and used it consistently through high school and even college. It is comprehensive, concise, easy to sport and thoroughly useful - a must for verb conjugators!

This review is from: The Cuthbertson Verb Wheels: French (Paperback)
I have several Cuthbertson Verb Wheels, which have seen me through Latin, Spanish, and French classes from high school to university and beyond. The idea is brilliant. Unfortunately, the new product is shabbily made and an insult to the original.
My French verb wheel somehow disappeared, so I ordered a new one recently. Was appalled by the quality. It looks as though it's been photocopied--and on a cheap machine! The print is splotched and broken, evidence of a multiple-generation copy. The paper is so flimsy that I had to spend time and money laminating it. I have my original Latin and Spanish wheels--good printing on sturdy cardboard--which are in great condition after several decades of use.
