Review by Charles Eicher

This is an ideal book for beginners, yet contains information useful for advanced students. It starts with simple explanations of verb structures, with diagrams quite similar to the explanations my teachers drew on a blackboard. Successively more complex verb constructs are introduced, categorized by topics. The book ends with a section of advanced idioms and a table of verb conjugations. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.
