I have used this book for several years in my German 101 and 102 courses.
Readers in comments above complain that the dialogue in the beginning of each chapter uses grammar not explained previously. The best way to teach each chapter is to explain all of the grammar of a particular chapter very first and then apply it to the dialogues and other exercises in the chapter.

A classic in German language acquisition and for good reason. I used this myself over 20 years ago when learning German in college and now use it for instructing adult learners. The format has changed somewhat, but the content, exercises and practical nature of the lessons remain valuable, immediately useful, and succinct.

I used this book for my German 101 and 102 classes. It was well-organized and very informative, and the writing style, while not exactly gripping, was easy to get through. The only problem I had with it was with the dialogues at the beginning of each chapter. They contained grammar that we'd not yet learned. This was more frustrating than actually hindersome, though, so it doesn't stop me from giving the book five stars. I'd recommend it to any beginning German student.

I too found this book to be excellent. There is indeed a lot presented and as with any language it is important to master the materiel prior to moving forward. This text was also selected as the German 101 & 102 text package for McGill University of Montreal.

I have no idea what the other person is talking about. This book does give you a lot of vocabulary and grammar, and the exercises are tedious, but in the early chapters that is important. Harvard chose this German book. German very first and second year students will find this book helpful. I felt that this book was extremely useful in learning proper German and grammar.
