OK, so it is impossible to make a book like this interesting - at least for me. However, I have had this book for about six months, and I still find it's the first book I reach for when I get stuck. 82 verbs are given a whole page, with 16 tenses written out in full - which is plenty. Although the cover says that there are 12,000 verbs, only the 82 verbs are explained in detail, though these are the ones you'll want most frequently. After that you are referred to one conjugated in the same way as the one you are interested in. At first this niggled because I like to see the word on the page, but then the book would be huge if every single verb was written out. Please not that you need to know the French word you are looking for as this isn't ... Read More:

Simply put, if you want to be a Journalist, Editor or Broadcaster then this is a book you simply have to read. What it teaches is that (country to popular belief) great writing doesn't require long words and phrases. Less is more is very much Evans mantra, and through this book he will teach how to write the best headlines and intros to grab your readers and keep them engaged. The back of the book features numerous endorsements which reads like a who's who of the best journalists of the past 30 years. Essential.

This book is both entertaining and instructive.Written in an easy, informal style, it certainly has added many more every-day French words to my vocabulary. I can't wait to try out some of the terms & expressions on my next trip to France! The small size also makes it very handy to slip into the door pocket, or a large bag. Worth buying.

I really like this format. I have looked at very, very many different teaching aids to French, (and bought a few too) and I do think that this is the best one. The format makes good use of colour and variety. There are listening, writing and speaking exercises. It does not ignore the grammar, but explains grammatical points succinctly. The CDs are essential to you progressing on the course. I genuinely think that you can make progress by yourself using this format. Its exceptionally well thought out and executed.

This is a superb course for the advanced learner (you really need to be AT LEAST post GCE level, or have spent a reasonable amount of time living in France). This course is targeted primarily at the self-study learner, but I even found it useful as a backup to my undergraduate studies. There is plenty of conversation and listening practice on the cassettes, and the course covers contemporary subjects such as the environment, health, tourism, French national holidays and the French press. I only have one small quibble in that the grammar covered, although advanced, is quite brief and you would perhaps expect a course of this level to be more thorough. However, I suspect the author has kept grammar to a minimum perhaps in an effort to ensure that the ... Read More:

9.Pocket Oxford-Hachette French Dictionary by: Oxford Dictionaries July 07, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £11.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £7.79 You Save: £4.20 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £4.85
A word of warning, this book is not exactly a pocket edition. I've just received my copy today and it is huge. I was expecting a handy pocket dictionary, but instead it is a mighty 8" x 5" and 2" thick. It may well be a great dictionary, but don't expect to carry it around in your pocket. Hence, 4 Stars for the misleading title.

I think i am in a fair postion to review this text-book, as the two authors have been my French teachers for the past 4 years, and i was particularly impressed when i heard that Tim was to have a book published. Upon hearing the title and seeing front cover i was worried that this book was on the subject of mountain-biking, but my worries were relieved when i opened the book to see it is indeed an A-level French text-book. The book covers themes on the syllabus effectively, though i feel that the book decides to omit a neutral perspective, and opts for a more socialist approach, and is perhaps rather too generous to towards the likes of José Bové and Georges Brassens. Also it bears a remarkable resemblance to Francoscopie. The grammar notes ... Read More:
