4.0 out of 5 stars Very good beginner's grammar text, but..., May 30, 2004

This review is from: Teach Yourself Russian Grammar (Paperback)

This is the first Russian grammar book I picked up and it's quite good, but Schaum's is better. Don't get me wrong, I've used and can recommend both, but if you only want one, get Schaum's Outlines of Russian Grammar by James S. Levine instead of this one.

This is a fantastic book which explains the complexities of Russian grammar in plain english. I must own half the books ever written on Russian grammar but this one just explained things in a simple straight forward manner giving excellent examples and the practice exercises were meaningful and worthwhile. I also liked the way it tackles grammar in small bite sized chunks building as you go without overwhelming you with new vocabulary.
