This book is specially designed to make the study oi' German language easy and interesting. The thirty lessons in this, where the typical everyday activities of two German families are narrated, help the student not only to assimilate the language naturally but also sustain his in-terest throughout. The rules of grammar are explained in a simple manner and are made easy to understand by their use in everyday phrases. There is an unique, easy-to-follow key to pronunciation. Numerous photographs and drawings help familiarize the student with objects and actions as expressed in German.
There are exercises after each lesson with their answers at the end of the volume. A Study Guide, contributed by Dr. Richard Friedenthal, gives an inte-resting account of German life and litera-ture and also a list of books for further study.

This is a very old book belonging to my father that he used in the 60's. Its in bad shape. Binding is gone, pages are loose & discolored, some are eaten up. I wanted to preserve it in digital format, so with great effort & difficulty, I managed to scan it over 10 days. And I am sharing it for the benefit of all German learners. It has lots of illustrations & B&W photos. I have OCRed it in both languages. Also added chapterwise bookmarks. Hope you like the scan quality. Do comment & seed fot others after you download.....
