Very Superficial The verb section of the book does not even mention the Subjunctive Mood. Can you believe that?!?!?!?
Good summary This is a great review if you have had German and need a refresher course or a quick review before the next class. The price is right, and the size is handy to carry with you. It is easy to understand.
Good Stuff This book has helped me understand a lot of the intricacies of the German language. Based on that I would say it is a very worthy purchase for one to have. But, it is not a book written for those who are not fluent on grammatical technical terms. I found myself a little lost at times, when the author would very non-challantly explain that something was just a matter of the "subjunctive predicative to the second power of the reversed megablaster future tense"...I know, I'm just joking, but I'm sure some of the readers understand what I mean. Having said that, I still say it is a good book for students of German such as myself. You'll just have to dust off your grammar lingo, that's all!
Small Book Packs a Punch. This book is great for quick reference and study. It has all sorts of rules and charts for memorizing German Grammar. Small book, but lots of information.

Good Reference Book Very good for help with writting and basic but complex phases. You know the ones we don't use. This and my German/English Dictionary sit together.
