Product Description

Excerpt from French for Beginners: Lessons Systematic, Practical, and Etymological "There is no longer any excuse why, even in the most elementary lessons - nay, I should say why more particularly in these elementary lessons - the dark and dreary passages of Greek and Latin, of French and German grammar, should not be brightened up by the electric light of Comparative Philology."
