I heard that Hugo's German is perfect when it comes to guide a beginner, But I found nowhere to download this item. Could there anybody of this forum get any link for that ? thanks a million.

I don't think it is appropriate for people here to give you direct links to illegal materials.
However, I can say that I do have the book German in Three Months (and the follow on Advanced German book also by Hugo). I bought them for 1 pence each on amazon.
They are good books, but I would not call them "perfect" at all.
If you would be interested in recommendations for legally-free-of-charge materials for studying I am sure people here would be happy to provide them. For example, you may enjoy the FSI German Courses which are more comprehensive than the Hugo courses, and assume no prior knowledge.

Thanks you guys , Splog and jimbo.
But why did you refer it to illegal links? By far I had found Hugo's French/Dutch/Spanish etc in 3 month course everywhere on internet, except for German . How does it come to illegal?
Also , I'll try to work with FSI you've recommened. Thanks

If you mean you want links to download them for free, then I am confused by your question, since it would obviously be illegal. If you mean that you want links where you can order them legally, then you can buy them at Amazon (and quite cheaply if you buy used copies).
