She has provided the profession with a superb pedagogical tool, and anybody studying German for reading knowledge or simply reviewing German grammar should be thankful that this book exists.» (Wolfgang Mieder, University of Vermont) «Based on April Wilson_s very popular reading course for students in the University of Chicago community, _German Quickly_ is an absolute delight. It is witty, lively and exciting. The on-going adventures of Fräulein Meier and the mailman entice readers from one lesson to the next, and having them translate extracts from Nietzsche, Goethe, Buber and other literary heavyweights instills a definite sense of accomplishment as they progress. Explanations of the grammar combine wonderful clarity with a sympathetic ear to the beginner_s difficulties.
