I'm in search of it, it's much easier (and cheaper) to have the Mastering series books, than it is to get the pdf printed and bound. I can't seem to find it anywhere, I have the first one which I bought for $4, and it goes up to unit 12 out of 24. Can anyone help me with FSI books printed out?
Thanks!
-Jordan

Not Barron's but maybe this would do? One marketplace seller selling one on Amazon.

Of course risk involved in buying without seeing.

Glad it went ok for you Jordan.
If you haven't done so already, may I suggest that you flip through each page in the book individually. Tedious to do so but it could save you an "Oh My" surprise in the future. I got a book from an online seller one time and it wasn't until months later I saw some pages were missing from it.
For others that may want to know, a further search on Amazon turned up a few other FSI Basic German unit 13 -24 books for sell. Though they were going for higher prices than what Jordan got it for. Using the search terms Basic German on Amazon will find them.

I never even thought about searching for 'basic German" I was too busy looking for the barron's edition. :D I love getting ahold of things like these, because I know they'll be taken care of and not destroyed. I'll flip through the book now, thanks for the suggestion :)
