5.0 out of 5 stars Complete grammar review, December 8, 1998
By A Customer
For an intermediate German student who needs to revise grammar, this is an easy to follow book with concise explanations and good exercises. Also, each chapter includes new words and, especially helpful, idioms which one would not find in a dictionary. This is not for a beginner, nor for someone fluent in German.

3.0 out of 5 stars 2nd Edition Over This Third Edition 3:1, September 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Practical Review of German Grammar, A (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
The reviews printed here (other than this one) appear to refer to the 2nd not 3rd edition. Whenever a "second author" pops up on an edition of a successful one-author book, it almost invariably indicates the book had to be "more user friendly" or "more accessible" and other triple speak phrases. At least in this case the page count went down instead of doubling and the price decreased instead of doubling to tripling (as in calculus books for example). It reflects the drive to make SAT tests easier to bring up the scores, pass every one to avoid complaints and put in more and prettier graphics to "attract" the student. The third editon has less depth and fewer real exercises. Shade! It remains however a highly useful book; although my own feeling is that it ranks below a MUCH cheaper Schaums Outline, "German Grammer"
