Collected Ghost Stories (Classics Library (NTC)) (Classics Library (NTC))

SPIFFING!
I wonder whether Mr John Major (remember him?) has read these stories. They are the English of the English (more than you could say for him I guess) and evoke the sort of idealised tranquil Albion that I suppose he was harking after when he tried to present a vision of spinsters cycling through the eventide and so forth. If he has I trust he found them not unsplendid, as I do. I myself am ...

Essential Reprise: A Complete Review of French Grammar, Communication and Culture

1 review
David Stillman

NTC/Contemporary Publishing Company, 1998

As nothing but a grammar review...
This book is very useful. It starts off with the most simple grammar (regular verbs), and eventually progresses into more complex tenses, moods, pronoun uses, and even includes 13 pages of idioms and their translations in the back (and activities for you to learn them!). For somebody that already speaks a romance language, this could serve as a pretty smooth introduction into French, as well. ...

Easy French Reader: A Three-Part Text for Beginning Students

What a great book!
With very little French (what I got from a phrasebook on holiday for a couple of weeks), I bought this book and started reading it on the train to work. It was great. It has a good lexicon in the back, and as you progress most new words appear in the margin with a translation. It still takes effort, but is a great way to get your vocab and reading up and running. I am now reading it again, as ...

Let's Learn Portuguese Picture Dictionary
I was actually looking for a "story" book that my 3 year old could share with her Portuguese speaking grandfather. The recommended age for this book was 9-12 but I decided to get it anyway. THIS BOOK IS NOW HER FAVORITE BOOK!!! She loves trying to find the items in the big "scenario" picture. She knows the English word so I tell her the Portuguese word and she repeats it while looking for it ...

A Great Start!
I really liked this book. It is very easy to understand and extremely helpful. I had always had a desire to learn Latin, so I picked up this book one day to give teaching myself a try. During the first chapter I already felt a sense of accomplishment when I could translate the first paragraph all on my own! I highly suggest doing the exercises (I did them all in a notebook). You can also check ...

A young Army lieutenant at his court martial says "Damn the United States! I hope I ...

Jack Jackson

NTC/Contemporary Publishing Company, 1997

Still unmatched after all these years.
The book is a great reference for people who are planning to or thinking about diving in the Philippines. It provides a good description of what to expect with regard to general dive locales, as well as specific dives. The book works, and works well because of several reasons. First, it provides (still valid) contact information on dive operators and lodging providers in the different ...

Writing the Wrongs
Effective writing skills must be mastered by anyone hoping to work in the field of public relations. If PR people do nothing else, they write, revise, write, revise, and write, more and more and more, until finally they write the wrongs (figuratively speaking, of course). In answer to this call, Thomas H. Bivins has created a dynamically comprehensive guide to many forms and styles of PR ...

Worthwhile, fun and educational coloring book
This coloring book has great pictures to help children learn about French culture - including holidays, French money, French food and shopping, and also includes a simple and attractive map of France and a world map illustrating where French is spoken. In the back of the book are brief but informative explanations of each of the coloring pages. I think it is appropriate for kids aged 5 - 12, ...
