    A nice, well-priced Russian grammar.

    This is not a recent publications, and contains the occasional anachronism, but it is overall a really nice little textbook that is easy to follow and use. I am quite pleased with this good coursebook, good value.

    Good price and intact

    Book looked pretty good when it came, with only a little bit of damage to the front cover. The price was also fair.

    Great resource for students of the Russian language.

    This book was purchased as part of a recommended reading to supplement my Russian language course. So far, the book has been very useful. However, the chapter on how to tell time was very confusing. All in all however, the book has been extremely helpful.
