5.0 out of 5 stars Concise, Excellent, June 2, 2001
This review is from: German in Review Text (Hardcover)
I am a long-time student of German, and lived and studied in Germany for three years. I was taking private lessons for the six months prior to my first move there, and this book was the only one my teacher and I used. She insisted that I have a strong foundation in German grammar, claiming that the "vocabulary would come". She was right. With the proper understanding of German grammar, you will quickly know what to do with the new words you learn. This book is excellent and brief, and will give you all the fundamentals you need to speak correct German.

Every time I return to Germany, I spend a week with this book just to get my grammar gears greased. I am a little overwhelmed by the price! I just dug out my copy, which I bought fifteen years ago: [price] at the Cal State Northridge bookstore!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, January 11, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: German in Review Text (Hardcover)
I used an earlier edition of this book in college. Of the many German textbooks I used during my 12 German courses, this is probably the best. It is simply a very well-arranged, orderly review of all the grammar that you need to know. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars for frustrated students, February 8, 2003
This review is from: German in Review Text (Hardcover)
I lived in Germany for two years as a child and attented a German school...but I never took a class on German grammer until now (college). Different verb forms especially had my brain in a knot. Fortunately this book was required for my German Lit class, and suddenly it's all begining to make sense. The book is laid out in chapters(verbs, adjective endings, passive voice, ect.) and each chapter is further divided into levels (I, II, III) according to your experience with German. Start with level I verbs and work your way up, or skip right to the more advanced levels if you are so inclined. The current book also features skill-building excercised at the end of each level. The answers can be found online.
All in all, I found this book to be readable and well-laid out. (Take a highlighter to it if you need to!)
