 Straight Foreward February 18, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
It is a very well written and well explained rules of this difficult language. It is staight foreward to the point explantion of all the grammatical rules that are needed to learn or even master the Russian Language. It makes a perfect complementary book for a textbook of learning the language. The only thing that I wish it had was if it had come with an audio cd as an outline of all the rules to hear how words especially at the end,change pronounciation under different cases. The price was right given how good the book was.
 making russian easier January 7, 2008
I had purchased this gramma book for myself over a year ago. Found explanations and exercises strengthened by Russian skills. Only let down being there was not a dictionary in the back of the text for the words used throughout. Nevertheless this is a very useful text to have and therefore purchased an identical copy for a very dear friend who is doing Russian.
 A very difficult book to follow December 12, 2007

A good book, but...why does the author use italics to highlight the words he is trying to make some grammatical point about? I know I need to eventually learn italics (5 small Russian letters don't look anything like the standard letters) but not now.
RUSSIAN LANGUAGE EDUCATION December 8, 2007
One of the best deals for intensive Russian self teaching. Still need a native speaker to listen to you, but this is the only exercise book you'll need to achieve fluency.
Extensive, but poorly organized December 1, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book covers a lot of grammar, but it isn't organized progressively. Each lesson has topics from other lessons, so you'll often have to skip around. Regardless, pretty much anything you'd need to know is included in this book. If you don't know how to express dates for instance, you can skip to that section and there are detailed explanations and examples. I wish there were more exercises, but this is really more of a reference book than a drill book. There's no glossary, but you'll find a lot of Russian vocabulary here, so it's also good to have a dictionary when you use this book. Overall, this is an extensive, thorough grammar book, but it's really not a great introduction to Russian. Buy this after you've learned the basics.
