Title: Cheap, and you get what you pay for.
Review: This handy book contains a 1-page introduction and 3-page pronunciation guide, each in english and in french. What follows are a 200 page french to english portion, and a 260 page english to french dictionary. I was attracted by the price but was quickly convinced that I had erred in not purchasing one of the larger, more expensive offerings. I am attempting a rough translation of a french novel and was disappointed so many words were nowhere to be found in this book. Further, only the infinitive and some gerundic forms of french verbs are listed; when I try to find, for example, a third person singular form, I come up empty, even though the infinitive is listed. I have, since, ordered a larger, more comprehensive dictionary and will report on it after I have a chance to use it. Carl F. Ricciardelli
